L’Octavin - Cariboom

This blend of roughly equal parts of Carignan and Grenache comes from the biodynamic vineyards of Claude Ughetto in the Vaucluse. The former was pressed directly, with the Grenache added to the fermenting juice as whole bunches to infuse gently for two weeks, before being pressed to cuve to rest until the following spring. The result is a light, bright and perfumed wine with notes of red cherry, citrus and bitter herbs that pile on the charm.
