La Souteronne 2024

Vin de France | Rouge | 2024

The low yields of this cuvée, derived from an old local variety grown on granitic terroir, contribute to its excellent structure and pronounced minerality. Crafted by Hervé Souhaut, this wine undergoes a long, low-temperature maceration without destemming and is aged on fine lees. Bottling without filtration preserves the product's integrity, maintaining a low sulfite content.

Rhône Valley | France

Hervé Souhaut cultivates his Ardèche vineyards, preserving the original character of the granitic slopes where Syrah achieves an ethereal expression. Gentle maceration during vinification yields refined reds with pure fruit and a delicate texture, contrasting with the more robust profiles found in the northern Rhône Valley. Aging in old barrels maintains this transparency, allowing a consistent tension to emerge that supports the wines without hardening them. This results in a sensation of energetic, almost infused lightness, which defines the domain's style. A sensitive, patient approach that has profoundly influenced the new generation of Rhône winemakers.
