Coteaux des Baux: Trévallon Rouge 2006

Coteaux des Baux: Trévallon Rouge 2006

A very good vintage with very pure fruit and a fine tannic structure. This really requires a bit more bottle-age and should keep well for a decade or longer.

Cellarage: Merits long-term ageing, particularly in superior vintages. Drinking well now, it will keep for a further 12 years. It should be decanted prior to serving.
Vinification: Low yields (25-30 hl/ha) and no chemicals give thick-skinned grapes that need 2-3 weeks cuvaison. The parcels of grapes are allowed a warm fermentation, using only indigenous yeasts, in small oak foudres where they rest for 18 months before an unfiltered, unfined assemblage and eventual bottling, 25 months after the harvest.
Alcohol by Volume (ABV): 13%
