Harmony and minerality | Drink now | Pleasure wine
AOP Saint-Chinian
Syrah 60% Grenache 30% Carignan 10%
 
Unyeasted, unfined, unfiltered, naturally cloudy wine.
 
A true concentrate of sun-ripened red fruits with a finish of freshness and minerality, LA COULEE DES SCHISTES is certainly the most typical vintage in our range from the schist terroir of the Saint-Chinian appellation and Languedoc.
Made only from the first juices, this light, complex and balanced wine has a nice length on the palate. As the grape varieties are vinified separately, we can adapt the blend of the cuvée according to the climatic influence of each vintage and thus preserve the spirit of the cuvée.
 
Manual harvest in boxes. Vinification with native yeasts. A very small dose of sulfur is added before bottling.
 
Food and wine pairings
Ideal as an aperitif and throughout the meal, LA COULEE DES SCHISTES will accompany grilled meats, white meats, fresh vegetables, cow's and sheep's cheeses and even chocolate desserts.
 
Ideal tasting temperature
Serve between 15 and 17°C. Aerate THE SHALE CASTING using an aeration carafe or an aerating pouring spout to allow the aromas to fully express themselves.
 
Guard
To drink when young, within 3 years.
