A Pure Expression of Rhone Terroir

Crafted by visionary winemaker Matthieu Barret, this exquisite Roussanne reflects his commitment to organic viticulture and minimalist winemaking. Grown in Cornas’ rugged slopes, where the legendary Mistral wind naturally protects the vines, these grapes develop intense aromatic complexity while maintaining vibrant acidity.

Why This Wine Stands Out:

• Organic & Low-Intervention: Hand-harvested from biodiverse vineyards that mimic wild ecosystems, ensuring authentic fruit expression.
• Unique Vinification: Aged in concrete eggs (not oak) to preserve the grape’s floral and honeyed notes without overpowering tannins.
• Distinct Terroir: Sourced from steep, sun-drenched plots in Vallée du Coulet, a monopole site known for its mineral-rich soils.

Tasting Profile:

Expect a graceful balance of white peach, acacia blossom, and wet stone, with a crisp finish lifted by the region’s natural freshness. Perfect with seafood, roasted poultry, or as an aperitif.
