Of course we matched the seafood with our rosé “Tradition” and our white “Les Costes” from 2011, which have already been bottled. And we had a look at the other wines as well, the reds from 2009 and 2010, including “Les Aspres” 2010. — Lire la suite.

We picked the grapes of our „High Densitiy“ Viognier vineyard (Domaine de l’Arjolle – Côtes de Thongue) at the end of August. This vineyard has been planted with some 8000 vines per hectare (instead of 5000 vines per hectare, more usual in southern France). The picking was done by hand, and in a convivial atmosphere... like every year. — Lire la suite.

Just by looking at them we go into raptures : Magnum, Jeroboam, Methusalem… Big is beautiful ! And what’s more, the wines do not age and ripen in the same way in those bottles – still one of the greatest mysteries of the wine world... — Lire la suite.
