Vin De Pays - Vaucluse - Domaine L’Amauve ‘La Vigne de Louis’

This cuvee can be drink young, on the fruit but it can be kept longer according to the vintage and the keeping conditions. This is a fleshy wine with fine and tight tanins. It has gorgeous aroma of blueberries, vanilla and chocolate. It is medium-bodied with soft tannins. An excellent wine for ‘everyday’ drinking.

The estate is certified organic since the 2020 vintage. The treatments of the vine are limited and based on copper, sulfur, and natural products of Biocontrol. When they are carried out, it is always at the minimum useful dose. The vineyard is grassed one row out of two to promote aeration and soil life and to facilitate the passage during work. The yields are naturally low and can be controlled by green harvesting if necessary.

Winemaking is done carefully, in small tanks, with pumping over and punching down of the pommace for a better extraction of the colour and tanins and at controlled temperature in order to express the best from the grapes. The maceration time is long, up to 25 days.
