WINE MAKING PROCESS
This Côtes-du-Rhône is crafted from a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. The grapes are grown using biodynamic farming methods, which emphasize ecological balance and natural vineyard cycles. Winemaking likely involves traditional techniques aimed at preserving the varietal character and the expression of the Rhône Valley terroir. Post-fermentation, the wine may undergo a period of aging, potentially in a mix of stainless steel and neutral oak, before bottling.
