Information
As this domain on the hillsides of Ampuis has been in the family for seven generations, it was perfectly natural for Stéphane Ogier to take over from his father Michel. Having learned his craft in Burgundy, he has decided to produce single parcel wines to achieve the best expression of each terroir. He also strives constantly for elegance and finesse. Today, the vines are planted on 27 hectares of granite and shale soil and cultivated sustainably. Tillage, organic treatments, no yeast and a short maceration process are the watchwords.
Grown following sustainable methods, the thirty-year-old Syrah which makes up this cuvée has been manually harvested, destemmed and macerated cold in stainless steel thermo-regulated vats to preserve the freshness of its fruit. The domain has chosen to give the wine a certain structure by aging it in barriques for 18 months. Its garnet hue unfurls a delicately fruity, peppery and liquorice bouquet. The palate has the same freshness and lingers beautifully.
