Wines, Beers & Spirits

This original coupage is a mix of Verdejo and Viognier, two power grapes that nobody has had the audacity to work with them in the same bottle. This wine has obtained bronze medal in Valencia region and gold medal in the ecological competition of wines of Valencia. Peñín has given it 90 points and has invited us repeatedly for the Best Wines of Spain Fair.
This wine represents the risk, the audacity, the will to live. That is why these two grapes make this wine so original, and surprising. The terroir is also a determinant factor for XTMO. Mineral, floral and with an enormous complexity that is more typical in a red wine, but very weird and unique in a white one.

This complex and elegant blend of Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Franc offers aromas of red fruits mingling with the spicy nuances of its maturation in demi-muids. The harmony of the mouth with fine and coated tannins presents a fresh and persistent finish. The wine reveals the authenticity of the high-altitude terroir from which it comes and its capacity to produce great wines for ageing.

Pairings: the spicy and powerful structure of this wine goes perfectly with a Provencal stew with peppers and game on the spit.

The purest expression of the Syrah grape variety. This wine opens with notes of great fruity intensity carried by a subtle woodiness. The attack is supple, elegant and enhanced by fine tannins, the mouth seduces by its crisp and ample side.

White wine
“Coup de Foudre” is the first wine harvested at the Domaine, usually within the first week of September. The resulting wine is a blend of three Mediterranean white grape varieties; Grenache Blanc, Roussanne and Vermentino. The grapes are grown on two distinct soil types; the first plot is situated near the entrance to the Domaine on clay limestone and the second on schist at an altitude of 400m.

THE VINIFICATION PROCESS

Immediately after harvest the grapes are stored in the cold room at 6 ºC for a minimum of 12 hours before being cold pressed. Whole bunch pressing then follows without any maceration at low temperatures of 4ºC. There is then a gentle clarification before transferring to 20-year-old Alsatian casks. The fermentation then starts when the temperature is raised to 18ºC. The vinification then proceeds without any chemical, or oenological, intervention. The wines are allowed to follow nature’s course. Aged on the lees, the wine then evolves naturally with malo-lactic fermentation taking place, or not, as nature dictates. When bottled in Spring, Coup de Foudre undergoes a light filtration with a minimum addition of sulphites to guarantee clarity and optimum stability.

TASTING NOTES

A clear and brilliant wine that combines minerality, finesse and freshness with an aromatic palate that is rich in ripe fruit, rounded and with an impressive length. An outstanding wine

Red Wine
“Demoiselle” is a blend of Grenache, Syrah and Merlot, grown on schists and clay limestone soils.
It is a turbulent wine which likes to wear the rich, soft robes of the Pays d’Aude appellation and also run after the Mediterranean sunshine. It would like to visit the entire world without losing its breath, complementing all types of food from rich meats to refined spices, not forgetting the terroir of its origins.

THE VINIFICATION PROCESS

The grapes are sorted and de-stemmed before being put into the vat. The grapes are gravity fed to preserve the quality and purity of the fruit. The vinification then proceeds without any chemical, or oenological, intervention. The wines are allowed to follow nature’s course. The fermentation lasts approximately two weeks and a low temperature of 20°C is maintained to ensure a slow extraction, without any punching down or pumping over. Demoiselle is aged in a combination of wooden vats (foudres) and stainless-steel tanks. Bottling takes place at the end of the second quarter. Before bottling Demoiselle undergoes a minimal addition of sulphites to guarantee an optimal stability.
Demoiselle 2019 is certified “Vin Méthode Nature”.

TASTING NOTES

A garnet robe with a violet rim. Demoiselle presents an intensely flavoured wine with an expressive palate of ripe black fruits; cherry, blueberry and plum. The wine is richly flavoured, dense, but thanks to the freshness of the acidity, it is balanced and harmonious and can be immediately appreciated. A long and complex finish promises a wine for laying
down, for those with patience!
