Description

This was a one-off parcel of a single case, which has had the benefit of a few years ageing, lending the wine additionally complexity. The wine is a classic southern Rhône blend of Grenache and Mourvedre, aged without the use of oak showcasing dark berry fruit and cherries and stony minerality. Domaine Montirius has been operating biodynamically since 1999. We have just a handful of bottles remaining. Carries the Biodyvin marque. The grapes are certified as being organic by Ecocert France.

  • Delivery Information

Vineyards: the grapes come from three different, biodynamically farmed parcels. The soils consist of blue marl, sand, and sandstone.

Winemaking: After the manual harvest, the grapes are de-stemmed, lightly crushed, and fermented with natural indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged in cement vats for two winters, and then in bottle. 100% oak free.

Situated in the southern Rhone Valley, our 58 hectare domain with vines in the Vacqueyras, Gigondas and Cotes du Rhone appellations has been converted to biodynamic culture since 1996. Since then, Montirius has enriched its range with wines from the Vaucluse, all made from biological and biodynamic grapes.

Wonderful Gigondas

The fragrance is so rich, and the cherry element in the flavour a delight. Wonderful! I ordered another bottle straight away.
