Exhuberant blueberry and blackcurrant fruit jump out, with notes of violet, anise and black pepper following swiftly behind. There is an admirable richness and density to the palate, concentrated and bold to the finish.

Producer

Maison Ferraton was founded in 1946 by Jean-Orëns Ferraton, the scion of family of vignerons with a small holding in Hermitage. Expansion of the family business continued apace under his son Michel, who bought vineyards in St-Joseph and Crozes-Hermitage. In addition to this he established a high-quality negociant arm, producing superior wines from the length of the Rhône Valley. This bijou producer has long been a firm proponent of organic and biodynamic farming, with an increasing number of wines produced according to these principles.

Vineyard

The grapes come from a lieu-dit in in the village of Beaumont-Monteux The vineyards are south-facing and planted on a limestone sub-soil with alluvial topsoils containing large pebbles from the River Isère.

Winery

After de-stemming, the grapes underwent a four-week maceraction in concrete vats, with frequent pumping over and punching down. Following alcoholic fermentation the wine was then matured in oak barrels for ten to twelve months, followed by a further six months in concrete vat before bottling..
