Tavel Rosé
A juicy, deeply spiced and flavorful Tavel rosé from Romain Le Bars. A blend of Grenache and Syrah, this wine delivers savory notes, dark, overripe wild berries, and mineral structure. This wine will be darker and deeper than expected for any rosé drinker who has never tried a bottle from L'Anglore (where Romain worked for 7 years) or from Romain Le Bars himself, but for those accustomed to the darker, dry rosés from Tavel, this is a welcome treat.
Romain Le Bars
Romain Le Bars is part of a band of young vignerons (Valentin Valles, Sébastien Chatillon, Gregory Guillaume, and Charles Soulier) who are putting the deep southern Rhône/Gard on the natural wine map in a significant way. Romain works a minuscule 1.5-hectare vineyard and had his first harvest in 2018. Before bottling his first vintage, he spent 7 years working for Tavel legend Eric Pfifferling (Domain L’Anglore) and that influence is evident in the glass! The wines are mostly blends of Grenache and Syrah, vinified in used wood barrels, that are either carbonically macerated or direct press. These are light, zero-zero wines made in the same spirit as his former employer. In other words, light in color and powerful in expression! Romain is certainly a name to pay attention to as these tiny production wines have garnered an immediate following.
