Domaine Didier Mouton
A nose with delicate, wild aromas… Palate: a smooth, refined juice, with great freshness and drinkability... a masterpiece, completely authentic, with 9 grams of residual sugars. It's not without its quirks and faults, so you have to be passionate about this style of entirely natural wine.

A cuvée made almost entirely from a single grape variety: 96% Grenache Noir, with 4% Carignan. Manual harvest on the 2nd of September, yield around 8 hl/ha. From a vineyard parcel of just 12 ares, with vines planted in the 1950s, on a sandy schist soil. Vinification: crushing, whole grape bunches, 40 days of maceration, blend of the free-run and the press juice, maturation for 2 years in old barrels that have seen 10 wines, with ZERO additives, that’s ZERO. Bottled on the 17th and 18th of October 2020, with only 180 (!!) bottles produced.
