2019 Famille Perrin Vinsobres" Les Cornuds", Rhone Valley, France

ABOUT THIS WINE

The most northern vineyard of the southern Rhône. The Perrin family owns around 60 hectares in one single plot in Vinsobres. The average altitude is 300 meters on hills and terraces. The soil is a blend of stony and sandy marl on the slopes, stony quaternary alluviums on the terraces.

The crop is manually harvested. Upon arrival in the cellar, each grape variety is sorted, destemmed, and vatted separately. The Syrah is vinified in large oak Foudres and the Grenache in stainless steel tanks. The extraction is done by punching down, and the frequency is determined by tasting. Blending takes place after malolactic fermentation.
