Les Coteaux Schisteaux Seguret Cotes du Rhone Villages AOP

In a Nutshell

An impressive classic Seguret - about as good as Côtes du Rhône-Villages gets!

Tasting Notes

A lush nose of explosive, opulent berry fruit rises from the glass, with hints of exotic spice, cracked black pepper and a note of vanilla. The palate is instantly appealing, polished and smooth on entry but steeped in depth and texture as the flavours swirl around, lengthen and delight. Ripe Grenache fruit is tempered by judicious use of oak to ensure the wine is never flabby. Wonderfully long and structured on the finish.

Production Notes

All the grapes are hand picked. Traditional long cuvaison using only wild ‘natural’ yeasts and remontages’ to release all the potential of the grapes and their skins.24 months in French oak 228 litre barrels and one quarter in 600 litre demi-muids, one third new, one third of 2nd fill and one third of 3rd & 4th fill.
