It is labelled as a humble Côtes du Rhône, yet it carries the depth usually associated with a good Gigondas, Rasteau or Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Almost half the wine is vinified in glass and porcelain jars, which Hélène Thibon finds brings more freshness than oak or steel and helps avoid reduction; the rest goes into 600-litre Stockinger demi-muids and cement. The fruit comes from a single hectare and the wine sits at an unlikely 13% alcohol, with assertive, mouth-filling tannins, seamless acidity and the savoury, earthy character the dominant variety brings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive it two or three years and drink over the following decade; serve at 16-18°C with braised beef, game or a mature hard cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
