Le Domaine est situé à Mercurol au cœur de l’appellation Crozes-Hermitage.

Crée par leur grand-père et développé par leur père et leur mère, le domaine de Lucie et Nancy s’étend aujourd’hui sur 10 ha, 9 ha en rouge et 1 ha en blanc sur des terroirs situés sur le Sud de l’appellation.

Jusqu’en 2010, les raisins étaient amenés à la cave de Tain l’Hermitage. Elles ont produit leurs premières bouteilles sur le millésime 2010.

« En recherche constante du respect de l’environnement, nos interventions, à la vigne comme à la cave, visent simplement à accompagner le raisin, puis le vin, vers son expression la plus authentique… », raconte Lucie.

Pour ces raisons, la vendange est entièrement manuelle, la vinification se fait en levures indigènes, sans chaptalisation ni acidification et sans S02.k

100% Syrah

Vignes : sélection parcellaire de vieilles vignes (50 ans). Cette cuvée est issue d’une parcelle d’une cinquantaine d’années plantée par notre grand-père à côté de la ferme familiale au quartier « Saint-Jaimes » à Mercurol. Ces vignes subissent de forts stress l’été, le sol étant très sableux et peu profond, apportant concentration et puissance.

Vinification : principalement en vendange entière, cuvaison de 1 mois avec peu d’interventions pour laisser s’exprimer l’authenticité de ce beau terroir. Elevage 12 mois en demi-muids (600l).

What is an author wine?

These 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.

It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.

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.
