Le Quai à Raisins Description

Plant

We are two young winemakers who operate from an old refurbished wine-cellar in the village of Aubais, in southern France. Our vines are located in Aubais, Aujargues and Saint-Mamert-du-Gard. All our land is certified by Ecocert and Demeter. As well as working our vineyards, we also travel around France to source different grapes. Throughout the year we are in partnership with our viticulteurs, so we can ensure that we get the best quality grapes that are representative of their region. It allows us to vinify grapes from the Beaujolais, the Côtes-du-Rhône, the Languedoc and the Roussillon. All our vineyards are farmed organically and biodynamically, in order to get the finest expression of the terroir and to favor natural biodiversity. All grapes are hand-picked, and we ferment all our wines with indigenous yeast and no added Sulphur. Our winemaking is minimalist but precise to produce pure and high-quality wines.

GRAPE VARIETY & TERROIR: 100% Grenache on granite at 400m altitude

THE VINES: Parcels located in Montalba-le-Château (Pyrénées Orientales). Organically farmed (certified by Ecocert) by Antoine Latipau, Domaine de l’Encantade. Harvested by hand.

WINEMAKING: The grapes are destemmed and macerated for 16 days between 20 and 26°C. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Aged 12 months in 400L French oak barrels on fermentation lees to avoid oxidation of the Grenache. Total SO2 < 10mg/L.

TASTING: Elder flowers and graphite nose. Typical Grenache notes with red currant and cherry compliment this concentrated and mineral wine.

WHEN TO DRINK: Great ageing potential. To be drunk during a nice meal with friends or by the fire with a good book.
