Wine Review on Line  – 91/100

Blue Lifestyle 2021  – 90/100



THE WINE Certified organic by Ecocert, Perrin Nature is not only an organic Côtes-duRhône but also a great wine. Using our experience in organic farming at Beaucastel (one of the first big estates to turn to organic farming 40 years ago), this wine is a beautiful expression of fruit with delicate and soft tannins.

THE VINTAGE The years in 9 regularly mark the memory of winegrowers and this vintage was no exception. After an early bud burst in early April, flowering was gradual and took place in good conditions in all the vineyards. Then a hot summer began in late June, which the vines bravely resisted: they suffered little from water stress, thanks to the chamomile herbal infusions we sprayed on the vegetation to cope with the heat. Finally, the harvest went as usual, without any particular precocity. The wines are promising; a vintage in 9 is born, once again, under a lucky star.

LOCATION This wine comes from a vineyard located between Valréas and Vaison-laRomaine, north of Orange. The vineyard is planted in Grenache and Syrah.

TERROIR Chalky clay soils.

AGEING The harvest date is determined by checking the ripeness of the grapes with analysis and tasting the berries. As soon as they arrive at the winery, the grapes are sorted and destemmed. The fermentation takes place in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks between 150hl and 190hl. The extraction is done by pumping over and the frequency is determined by tasting. After racking and malolactic fermentation, the wines are transferred partly to oak barrels and partly to stainless steel vats where they will be aged for a year.

VARIETALS Grenache, Syrah

SERVING Serving temperature 15-16°C.

TASTING NOTES Beautiful colour of an intense deep-red with purple reflections. The nose is particularly expressive with aromas of fresh cherries, cinnamon and pepper. The palate is well balanced, with a lot of softness and elegant tannins.


2019.
