LE TERROIR
Cette cuvée est issue d’une sélection de parcelles plantées sur un terroir de boulbènes caillouteuses.
Le rendement est faible (40 hl), et les raisins
sont naturellement riches et concentrés sur ces parcelles.
LA VINIFICATION
La mise en cuve se fait par simple gravité et sans foulage.
Chaque cépage est vinifié séparément pendant 4 semaines environ avec un contrôle des températures.
Pour cette cuvée, nous pratiquons la technique du pigeage, qui favorise une extraction différente : davantage d’arômes, tannins plus souples.
L’élevage de 18 mois se fait en foudres de 20 hl et en barriques de 400 l.
Comme pour la Cuvée Réservée, Don Quichotte n’est ni collé, ni filtré.
LA DEGUSTATION
La robe est pourpre sombre translucide. Le nez est vif, frais, sur les fruits noirs, la réglisse la violette et la fumée. La bouche est ronde, ample, enrobante, tout en offrant une belle tension, et déploie une matière veloutée / pulpeuse au fruit gourmand souligné par des notes florales et épicées. La finale prolonge la bouche avec des tanins crayeux un peu plus fermes, et une persistance sur le coulis de mûre, la violette et le poivre fumé.

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.
