"Youthfully attractive and beautifully fragrant, the wine shows Black Doris plum, blueberry, floral, subtle spice and roasted nut aromas on the nose. The palate displays succulent fruit flavours and supple texture, finishing long and juicy. A lovely medium-full-bodied red offering excellent drinking. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2020
A captivating garnet red with rich aromas of morello cherries, liquorice and white pepper. This wine has a great structure with firm and silky tannins.
The vineyards of the red Côtes du Rhône “Belleruche” covers 4 departments (Drôme, Vaucluse, Gard and Ardèche) on different soils (clay and calcareous alluvial deposit terraces, clay…) giving to the “Belleruche” an extraordinary richness and complexity.
The grapes are harvested at good maturity. The grapes are entirely destemmed. Vatting lasts around 15 days and provides a great tannic structure. This allows ageing and guarantees a good stability. Ageing is performed in vats with regular pumping over in order to clarify the wine.
