Description of wine 🍷
Élaboré à partir de Syrah (40 %), Carignan (30 %) et Grenache (30 %) cueillis à la main, vinifié délicatement suivant une ancestrale méthode locale, élevé sans artifices, Esprit d’automne, c’est le vin à tout faire, un touche-à-tout de talent. Et, tout en ébauchant un archétype du Minervois rouge idéal, il pose, avec ce qu’il faut de décontraction, de spontanéité et de convivialité, les bases du style Borie de Maurel.
Dégustation : la robe est pourpre sombre, presque opaque. Le nez est déjà complexe pour un vin si jeune, sur la framboise confite, le poivre blanc, l'encens, le laurier, le pot-pourri floral... La bouche est longiligne, étirée par un fil invisible, tout en déployant une matière douce, aérienne, dotée d'une grande intensité aromatique qui la rend séveuse, balsamique. Cela se confirme dans une finale encore plus intense – sans la moindre dureté – très vineuse /séveuse, sur les fruits noirs confits, la réglisse et l'aceto balsamico tradizionale. Comme chaque année, jamais un petit vin n'a été aussi grand.
Garde : délicieux sur le fruit dès sa sortie, Esprit d’automne peut se conserver 5 ans.
Accords : le vin à tout faire, aussi à l'aise sur des grillades, des plats traditionnels (cassoulet, daube…) que sur de la cuisine exotique légèrement épicée.

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.
