Domaine Viret
Saint-Maurice-sur-Eygues
“Renaissance”, Vin de France Rouge
SKU VIRE
A blend of the classic varieties of the area, “Renaissance” combines Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Carignan (in descending order of prominence) from parcels scattered throughout the property. It ferments naturally in concrete and undergoes a 45-day-long maceration, then spends nearly four years in concrete with no added sulfur whatsoever. This phenomenal wine offers a layered, meditative character, with ripe but beautifully controlled fruits unfurling slowly throughout the gently extracted, vibrant palate. For a zero-sulfur wine, it speaks clearly of the terroir and is viscerally expressive of its impeccable fruit of origin.
About Domaine Viret
Although he is far from dogmatic about it, Philippe generally adds no sulfur at all to his wines at any point during fermentation or aging.
