Les Pierres du Vallat

AOC Gigondas , Rouge , 2022

€18.90 / bottle of 75 cl
Les Pierres du Vallat evokes the stony soils and small valleys that shape the great terroirs of Gigondas. Sourced from Grand Montmirail, this cuvée blends Grenache and Syrah and is carefully aged for 12 months in demi-muids and large oak casks. Black fruit, licorice, garrigue and a smoky touch define a full-bodied, structured and intense wine.

Tasting
A rich and complex aromatic profile. The palate is full and refined, with a long, elegant finish lifted by the freshness brought by the limestone soils.
Serving
14-16°C
Food pairings
Here are three occasions to enjoy this wine — and plenty more for you to create: a generous dinner around the table with braised beef, creamy mashed potatoes or a slow-cooked casserole; a relaxed meal with friends featuring spiced roasted squash, a root vegetable gratin or porcini risotto; or a quiet late-evening tasting with aged Cheddar, toasted nuts or a square of dark chocolate.
"Exprimant avec brio le terroir prisé du Grand Montmirail, ce vin est aussi nuancé et intense dans ses parfums qu'harmonieux dans sa texture."

The vintage

2024 has been full of weather challenges. Spring brought disease pressure, summer droughts reduced yields, and heavy rains in September added to the difficulties. Even so, the great quality of the wines reflects the skill, dedication, and great adaptability of our Artisans winegrowers and winemakers.

Terroir

Parcels located in the Grand Montmirail area of the Dentelles de Montmirail, at an altitude of 400 metres.

Winemaking

Regular pump-overs are carried out at the beginning of fermentation to gently extract colour, aromas and fruit. The wine then undergoes a long, four-week maceration at controlled temperatures of 27–30°C. The entire blend is aged for 12 months in large oak foudres and 400-litre demi-muids.

Grape variety

  • Grenache noir – 55%
  • Syrah – 45%
