This vineyard will be a Premier Cru bottling next year with the release of the . It is produced from 25 year old vines and is aged completely in older, small barriques. You immediately see the pedigree of this wine in the ripeness of the nose; red apple, sea salt, fresh pineapple, creamed corn and cashew butter. On the palate it displays really good concentration, the wine above on steroids, with more citrus poking out and a much higher level of minerality.
This wine comes from a vineyard just ¾ of an acre in size. Fermented in used oak barrels, this is as pure an expression of Vinzelles you will find. The yields at this Domaine are routinely 20-30 percent lower than what is allowed in each given appellation allowing Marie-Pierre Manciat to craft wines that are rich and powerful while remaining focused with an emphasis on the calcaire rich soils of each terroir.
