Wine Description:
Le Roc des Anges' "Llum" is a radiant example of the winemaking prowess found in the rugged terroir of Roussillon, France. Marjorie and Stéphane Gallet, the dedicated vignerons behind this gem, farm their vines biodynamically, fostering a deep connection with the land. "Llum," which means 'light' in Catalan, is crafted primarily from old-vine Grenache Gris and Grenache Blanc, planted on the unique black schist soils that impart a distinct minerality to the wine. Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged in demi-muids, this wine is a pure expression of place, showcasing the balance between power and finesse. Pros:
- Intense and complex aromas
Cons:
- May be too bold for those who prefer lighter wines
Wine Expert Note:
Le Roc des Anges' "Llum" presents a luminous golden hue, beckoning with its glow. The nose is an enchanting fusion of ripe orchard fruits, white flowers, and a mineral streak reminiscent of wet stones. The palate is a cascade of peach and pear, enveloped by a creamy texture that speaks to its lees aging, yet there's a refreshing acidity that keeps the wine in a delicate balance. The finish brings a touch of spice and a saline note, a signature of the schist soils, making it linger with complexity and grace. This is a wine that manages to be both richly textured and elegantly poised.Taste Flavor
