    The wine

    The cuvée Les Laurentides has a clear, garnet hue whose nose reveals notes of red fruit and sweet spices. Dense and silky, its palate is framed by tannins that, although still a little tight in their youth, allow pairings with a fine cut of meat. To make this wine, the domain has grown its berries using biodynamic methods, carried out manual harvesting, 15-day maceration, fermentation with native yeasts and élevage for 8 months in barrels.

    Information about domain Gramenon

    Domaine Gramenon was created in 1979 on the slopes of Montbrision-su-Lez in the southern Rhône. Its founders Phillipe Laurent and Michèle Aubéry started with 12 hectares but have gradually expanded to 26 hectares; They cultivate Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Viognier and Clairette. They benefit from a limestone rich terroir and an altitude that confers great freshness to the wines. Following Philippe's death in 1999, Michèle took over the whole business with the help of his son Maxime François Laurent. Convinced that good grapes make good wine, the father son duo practice biodynamic viticulture. Yields are controlled and the soil is ploughed. The wines are sought after for their freshness and brightness. Certain cuvées can be drunk young while others need a few years in the cellar.
