A light rose produced from the direct press juice of early morning harvested fruit (75% Grenache Noir, 20% Syrah, 5% Viognier). Vinfication with native yeasts and aging in concrete eggs allows for extended contact with the lees to round out the fruit while maintaining tension in the wine. A splash of Viognier adds additional textural and aromatic complexity.
4th generation grape growers and wine makers Sebastien and Dimitri Arsac from the little town of Saint Jean Le Centenier in the Ardeche.
Their vineyards benefit from an average elevation of 380 meters, which lengthens their growing season and produces brighter wines. Special attention has been paid to the diverse soils of the area with Chardonnay, Viognier, and Sauvignon Blanc on clay and limestone soils and Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Grenache on the volcanic hillsides.
