Côtes de Provence: Domaine Richeaume: Cuvée Columelle 2009

‘Cuvée Columelle’ (named after Roman viticulturalist Columella) is blended from 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Syrah and 10% old-vine Grenache Noir. It is a rich, heady, hedonistic offering with enticing garrigue herb scents and it is packed with dark stone fruit flavours against a fine tannic structure that will see it mature gracefully for a decade.

  • Vinification: Biodynamically cultivated, hand harvest grapes, from 35 year old vines, are fully de-stemmed prior to a 3 week cuvaison - a key factor in M.Hoesch's effort to "work the body of the wine - it's dry extract" at this stage - ensuring that complex aromatics will develop later, in barrel. Regular racking and small volume elevage yield wines that seldom require filtration and need only the lightest of finings.
  • Alcohol by Volume (ABV): 13.5%
