Romain Le Bars Pousse Cailloux VDF 2025

Country: France Region: Rhone Valley (VdF) Grape: Grenache Colour: Red Bottle Size: 75cl Alcohol: 13% Vintage: 2025PRODUCER NOTESRomain runs a tiny 1.5 hectare estate in Gard, in the southern Rhône region. Since his first vintage in 2018 he has slowly acquired more land, meaning there is more wine available for us. Romain spent 7 years working with winemaker Eric Pfifferling at Domaine de L’Anglore, prior to that assisted Matthieu Vallée at Château Yvonne. Romain works, mostly, with Carignan, Grenache and Syrah, and vinifies in old wood using little to no sulphur. His wines are about drinkability and he is really showing mastery of carbonic maceration. Incredible and extremely limited wines, from a rising star in the South of France. FARMING & WINEMAKING NOTES100% Grenache undergoes a 12 day carbonic maceration, direct press then aging for 7 months; 50% in inox vats and 50% in demi-muid and barrel The aged wine is blended and bottled without sulphur.
