BIODYNAMIC

Keywords : Complex / Deep / Smooth 

The wine : The cuvée Berty is certainly one of the finest wines from the Coteaux de l'Ardèche you will have the opportunity to taste! This magnificent blend of Syrah, Grenache, and Cinsault shines with its power, its aromatic depth, as well as its great balance. Aged for 18 months, 80% in oak barrels and 20% in amphora, this cuvée offers a smooth and ample texture as well as ripe tannins. Its aromatic profile evolves with notes of candied red and black fruits (strawberry, raspberry, blackberry), aromas of garrigue (thyme, pepper), a well-integrated oak and enchants us with its magnificent length. Magnificent pairings with red meats and game in perspective, as well as great aging potential!

The estate : If the Château de la Selve has a long history dating back to the 13th century, it has belonged to the Chazallon family since the early 1990s. In 2002, the family's son, Benoît, decided to create a wine estate there with his wife. From their arrival, they practiced organic and biodynamic farming to respect the limestone soils and the surrounding lands scented with garrigue. Today, with 44 hectares, the estate's grape varieties consist of Cinsault, Syrah, Grenache, Cabernet-Sauvignon, and Viognier. A little-known gem to discover!
