Tasting note
Deep dark red color with the scent of ripe black fruit, herbs and light oak. The taste is full and powerful, almost sultry, with nuances of freshly roasted coffee. The aftertaste is long and persistent.
Description
Louis-Marie and François Teisserenc have adapted the style of their top wine Paradoxe from the 2009 harvest. The share of burgundy grapes is gradually reduced and that of the typical southern French grape varieties syrah and grenache is increased. The syrah vineyard is of a phenomenal quality and now determines the assembly for almost 60%.
The grapes are harvested manually with the very limited yield of 35 hl / ha for this area. After fermentation, a 12-month maturation follows on new oak casks. A method that suits a high-level wine.
As of the 2009 vintage, Arjolle used a large number of new casks from famous Burgundy tonneliers such as Mercurey Chassin and Seguin Moreau. These casks limit the direct influence of the oak, but above all give elegance and finesse. A great wine!
