Description of wine 🍷
" Sous la montagne" car les vignes sont situées sous le Canigou, la "montagne sacrée" des Catalans.
Origine : secteur de Caramany (300-350 m d'altitude)
Cépage : 66 % Syrah et 34 % Carignan
Terroir : granitique avec de l'argile et de la matière organique en surface.
Vinification : Vendanges manuelles / Les raisins de Syrah sont égrappés et foulés pour moitié / Lorsque la fermentation est bien démarrée, on ajoute autant de Syrah en vendange entière que de Syrah égrappée / Puis quelques jours après on ajoute du Carignan très mûr, autant que la Syrah en vendange entière. Lorsque la macération carbonique est terminée dans les raisins, on décuve, puis les coules et les presses sont assemblées.
Elevage : en cuve béton
Dégustation : La robe est grenat très sombre, aux reflets tuilés. Le nez est fin, complexe, , sur les fruits noirs confits, le genièvre, la réglisse, le cacao, la truffe, les épices douces... La bouche est ronde, très ample, enrobante, déployant une matière dense et veloutée, aux tanins charnus et profonds. L'aromatique reprend celle du nez, avec un profil un peu plus évolué. La finale est intense et énergique, avec des tanins plus "musclés" (mais bien fondus), sur des notes de prune, de cacao et d'épices douces.

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
