Wine Description:
Domaine Oratoire Saint Martin Haut-Coustias Cairanne Blanc is an exceptional white wine from the southern Rhône Valley's renowned Cairanne cru. This biodynamic and organic wine is crafted from old vines situated on the highest limestone and clay slopes of the region. The Mediterranean climate, characterized by hot, dry summers and the cleansing mistral wind, creates ideal conditions for viticulture. The wine undergoes direct pressing with a pneumatic press, followed by cold settling for 24 hours. Fermentation and aging occur in concrete tanks, large wooden vats, and eggs for nine months, utilizing indigenous yeasts and no malolactic fermentation. The result is a beautifully textured and complex blend of Marsanne, Grenache Blanc, and Roussanne, offering vibrant acidity and refined minerality, reflective of its unique terroir.
