Fite Rémy - Nauta Terra 2022 Rouge

The grapes come from old, low-yielding vines that are picked exclusively by hand. The blending takes place directly at the harvest for a better harmony of the flavors.

This wine is vinified in a traditional way with the aim of limiting handling and blending. The sulphites content is very low and it has undergone only one filtration. It benefits from short maceration (7 days) and moderate extraction, at a constant temperature of around 20°C.

The wine is then bottled in barrels on the estate after 8 months.

Limited production: 2800 bottles

Grapes
Syrah (40%) Grenache N (40%) Cinsaut (20%)

Terroir
The vineyard located on the heights of Gignac covers a little over 7 ha. The soil, clay-limestone, is shallow, and covered with pebbles on the highest of the hills.
At the foot of the slash, looking towards the foothills of Larzac, the vines have to deal with the beauty and harshness of the Mediterranean climate.

Tasting notes:
The colour is garnet red, with deep revealing ruby ​​hues. The nose is complex, hot, with roasting aromas tending towards toast. After aeration, these evolve further towards undergrowth.

In the mouth a characterful, lively wine with ample aromas of blackcurrants and wild fruits accompanied by a spicy note.

The present but discreet tannins provide support in the mouth.

Smooth and balanced wine with aging potential between 3 and 6 years, to be enjoyed at room temperature. Preferably well ventilated before enjoyment.
