An equal blend of Syrah and Grenache from the Michel’s vineyards at the heart of Roussillon. Harvested manually and fully destemmed, the grapes are then macerated for a fairly brief 15 days in concrete vats. Pigeage every 2 days, a light pumping over every 3 days, long and gentle pressing, and finally putting into used oak barrels. “the color is translucent garnet. The nose is rather shy on opening with stewed black fruits, scrubland and spices. The palate is wide, silky and deep, unravelling a hyper-concentrated and sappy, candied material while offering delightful and fully melted tannins. The finish gains yet more intensity and freshness, concluding with a tasty chew of blackberry, liquorice and pepper. Stunning !”

INFO ON GROWER

Alban Michel started Domaine Sabots d’Helene in 2005 with a simple view of producing organically farmed, pure natural wines. The methods Alban uses are based on a low yield policy, systematic harvesting at optimum maturity, very gentle extractions in wine-making that best respect the balance of the grapes and the quality of the fruit. The wines are unique and characterful, Alban’s talented touch apparent in all of them – nothing added and nothing is taken away. Productions are small.
