Chateau l'Ermite
Château l’Ermite d’Auzan Gavroche Rouge, Organic / Biodynamic 75cl
The original estate was founded in the 11th Century by the hermits of Sainte Cécile d’Estagel Abbaye and it made wine for pilgrims en route to Santiago de Compostella. The estate encompasses 80 hectares of sunny, south-facing vineyards planted on sandstone soils and benefitting from Mediterranean breezes that cool the vines in the summer.
Produced from the estate's young vines (average age 10 years) growing in vineyards overlooking the Camargue and strewn with smooth pebbles from the Durance river valley. After harvesting, the grapes are chilled for 3 days before a natural ferment at controlled temperatures. Unoaked.
Aromas of wild woodland fruits and bracken. The palate has fresh blackberries, bramble fruit with, supple tannins and crunchy, fresh acidity to keep it lifted and juicy.
