Vinification of the Côtes De Rhône from Domaine Des Pères De L'Eglise Paulette Gradassi

The basis for the powerful Côtes De Rhône from the Rhône Valley is grapes from the Carignan, Grenache and Syrah varieties. In the Rhône Valley, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on clay and limestone soils. After the grape harvest, the grapes are quickly taken to the press house. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks and concrete at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the Côtes De Rhône can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for a few months.
