A nice #crèmantdelimoux to ring in 2021! — 4 years ago
Excellent acidity and minerality commingle when plum, blueberry, black cherry, and some smoke. — 9 years ago
Great structure. Complex layers of primary secondary and hints of tertiary. Has years to go. — 9 years ago
PnP. Initial taste of bright red cherries and a hint of herbs, fantastic. Then after 15 min the acid and tannin just dominated the fruit. That transformation tarnished what I thought was to be one enjoyable Pinot. Maybe time will help just not sure how the acid and tannin grew with air. Hope someone can explain this for me. — 10 months ago

🏅 Rating 89/100 (3,9⭐)
Juicy fruity natural wine seasoned with pepper. Savoury and floral (violets).
Tannins are ripe and sandy by texture, attacking the front of your mouth. Gluglu easy drinking wine, despite 14% Alc. Drink when thirsty while wine is young.
Blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Cinsault. Younger wines (15-30 years old) from Clay-limestone soils in Montbrison Sur Lez and Valréas of Côtes-du-Rhône.
Winemaking of this negoce project of Maxime François Laurent is identical to the one of his mother's (Michèle Aubèry-Laurent) famous biodynamic Domaine Gramenon. Maxime buys organically grown grapes from his friend. As in Gramenon, fruit is partially de-stemmed keeping the rest in whole bunches. Maceration lasts for 15 days in cement tanks o extract flavours and intense colours. Fermentation is done with native yeasts. Wine is then agied in oak barriques for 6 months and preserves its fruity freshness.
These natural wines rarely see sulfites, only up to 2g/hl when needed after malolactic fermentation. No fining, no filtration.

Densely knit cherry fruit with some spice and burgundy funk. The vintage shows its weight without being over the top.. Small mineral driven finish. Lovely. — 8 months ago
