Intensity
A combination of four plots, Harmonie is a true reflection of the personality of the Marsanne grape variety. It comes from thirty-year old vines planted on colluvium mixed with granitic, clay and chalk-rich outcrops. Alain Voge harvests grapes manually, vinifies the grapes at low temperatures in concrete vats and allows malolactic fermentation to take place. The wine is then aged on fine lees, still in concrete vats, for ten months. As a result, the wine is taut, fresh but vibrant, generous and very aromatic. A marvel to enjoy with fish or sea-food platters.
About the Producer Stéphane Othéguy
Stéphane Othéguy, an ardent advocate of organic viticulture, grows wines in the prestigious appellations of Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu and Saint-Joseph. His property is used for mixed farming so 5 hectares of fruit trees, 5 hectares of woodland and 3 hectares of grassland can be found in addition to his 3-hectare vineyard. The wines are uncomplicated, very low in sulphur, and become more refined by the year. The extremely rare Condrieu is highly sought-after, as are all the other Serine-based cuvées (a local Syrah variety).
