This wine is a harmonious blend of Marsanne and Roussanne, carefully cultivated using organic and biodynamic farming methods. The grapes, harvested and sorted by hand, undergo gentle pressing before traditional vinification. Aging takes place primarily in oval concrete tanks and barrels, imparting a refined structure and beautiful complexity to the wine. The well-drained, clay-limestone soils of Beaumont-Monteux lend it a unique freshness.

Our Review of the Cuvée

This wine first captivates with its expressive nose, which exudes subtle aromas of white flowers and apricot, reflecting its elegant and delicate character. On the palate, it reveals a smooth, velvety texture, enhanced by a lovely minerality derived from the detrital pebbles in the soil. The Marsanne and Roussanne complement each other perfectly, offering a lingering, balanced finish. An ideal choice for those who appreciate wines crafted with passion and respect for nature.

Domaine Les Bruyères

Domaine Les Bruyères

Loire | France

In Crozes-Hermitage, Domaine Les Bruyères is managed by David Reynaud, with an approach based on biodynamics and a constant pursuit of balance. The Syrah here is crafted in a focused, elegant style, prioritizing fruit freshness and structural clarity over heavy extraction.

The red wines are distinguished by a fine grain and a taut framework, with characteristic black fruit and violet expressions typical of the region. Maturation is carefully controlled to maintain continuous energy on the palate and elongated finishes, without heaviness. Extractions remain measured, resulting in precise and integrated tannins.

The white wines, primarily from Marsanne and Roussanne grapes, offer balanced profiles, built upon a soft texture and a discreet acidity that supports the overall structure. Aging processes are conducted with restraint, with the aim of complementing the wine's substance without altering its inherent character.
