Syrah
Organically cultivated younger vine Syrah planted to limestone/sandy soils in the Rhône/Ardéche. Grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed and macerate for 20 days prior to pressing. Spontaneous fermentation in concrete tank; élevage in stainless steel. Bottled unfined, unfiltered, no additional SO2. The palate shows a lovely freshness, making it suitable for aging for several years.
Domaine Lattard
After finishing his degree in oenology in 1995, Denis Lattard took over his family’s chicken and vegetable farm located in the heart of Ardèche or the Drôme. The farm had been previously covered in vines and this signified to Denis a different potential of this special terroir. He began to plant Gamay, Syrah, Roussanne, and Viognier vines on the 6.3 hectare estate.
Today, the certified organic vines live in a dramatic environment of limestone and clay soils at 350m elevation on chiseled cliffs. Since 2007, he has added zero sulfites to his cuvées.
The style of the wines tend to be light and fresh, allowing his terroir and the grapes’ true characteristics to shine through. Denis doesn’t want to produce pretentious or serious wines, just tasty wine to be enjoyed everyday.
