Terres Fideles

Terres Fideles Cami del Drac Grenache/Roussanne Blanc IGP Cotes Catalanes

£12.50

The wines of Terres Fidèles are designed to express the spirit of this extraordinary place, old vine Grenache, Carignan, Malbec, Cinsault, Viognier and more, that are authentically crafted, small batch wines of the wilds.

These old vines are rooted in the hills of the north-west of Perpignan on clay and limestone terraces alongside the Têt River.

This is a young block Grapes are picked at night, in mid-August, and transported to the cellar in small trailers, where they are gently pressed and vinified separately. The first pressed juice is clarified by cold settling. Fermentation is carried out in stainless steel vats which is temperatures controlled between 15 and 18°C. After 10 days of fermentation, the wines are racked and left on fine lees, without malolactic fermentation. The wine is blended between September and January.

Complex, floral and elegant. A combination of terroirs and varieties. Ripe stone fruit flavoured Grenache Blanc alongside the acacia floral notes of Roussanne. The balance is perfect between fruit, minerality and garrigue influences.
