Southern Côtes Du Rhône

Situated in the south of the Côtes du Rhône, on the right bank of the river “le Rhône”, This “Côtes du Rhône Villages Signargues” was raised to AOC status in 2005. The soil is quite similar to Châteauneuf du Pape, terraces of rounded pebbles on sand. The vinification has been done by the Cave des Vignerons d’Estézargues.
The wines have a lot of elegance and finesse. Côtes du Rhône made with 50% Grenache, 25% Syrah and 25 % Mourvèdre.

Pascal gives a try to winemaking in the late 90s and takes over part of his father’s vineyard. Seems like he will look after a living thing if not a human being. Straight away, he converts the Domaine to organic farming and follows by biodynamic farming . The parcels are all located in Visan and Tulette, a very interesting terroir, given the ancient and diverse soils, although mostly a mix of gravel and silex with a first layer of clay and sand. Only native yeasts are used for a long fermentation. The red wines are fully destemmed and cold soaked for a month rather than fully extracted during fermentation.
