    In a few words ...

    Powerful and silky! Domaine Barville is owned by Laurent Brotte's family. A 15-hectare vineyard to the west of the village, it comprises seven parcels of land on two of the oldest and best terroirs in the AOC. At an altitude of 100 meters, the vines, on average 35 years old, overlook the Rhône and benefit from the mistral wind, as well as the good exposure essential to berry ripeness. The grapes are harvested by hand and quickly transported in small containers to avoid compacting and oxidation. The grapes are then completely destemmed, crushed and fermented at 28°C, followed by a 3-week maceration. The tannic Syrah, Mourvèdre and Grenache wines are aged for 12 months in French oak barrels (1/3 new, 1/3 one-wine, 1/3 two-wine), while the softer, fruitier Grenache wines are aged for 12 months in traditional vats and barrels.

    Le Guide Hachette des Vins

    Le Guide Hachette des Vins Critique professionnel

    A base of Grenache Noir and a complement of Syrah and Mourvèdre for this cuvée aged in barrel, foudre and vat. Open, the nose smells of ripe fruit (prune, cherry) and spices, with a hint of minerality. Concentrated and ample on the attack, the palate is supported by a fine tannic structure, solid but not austere, before a long, fruity finish. Harmonious and full-bodied, this wine will stand the test of time.
