This Sur La Lune from Le Clos du Gravillas is a dazzling expanse of white limestone pebbles on a plateau at an altitude of 300 meters in the Haut Languedoc Natural Park.
Between the gorges of St Chinian and Minerve, surrounded by scrubland and holm oaks, the 8.30 hectare estate is managed with respect for the terroir, in organic farming with concern for the preservation of the biodiversity of fauna and the surrounding flora.
This wine comes from 3 plots on the Cazelles plateau: Syrah from a place called “Esperandieu”, a very pretty place surrounded by hills covered with scrubland, almond trees, broom and oaks where they also planted 48 pomegranate trees, 25 fig trees as well as cherry and apricot trees.
The 80 year old vine of Carignan planted with Grenache from the place called Carretals and the 40-year-old Carignan vine from the place called Roque de Beau.
Serve rather chilled but not too cold, ensuring that the wine does not heat up excessively in the bottle or in the glasses. A slight opening time prior to service may be beneficial.vThis wine beyond all the technicallities and sense of place it is a straight wine without organoleptic deviation, without volatile phenols, pure, with perfect control and ultimately delicious. Slainte!
