Famille Perrin Nature Côtes du Rhône Rouge - 2013
Presentation
Certified organic by Ecocert, Perrin Nature is not only an organic Côtes-du-Rhône but also a great wine. Using our experience in organic farming at Beaucastel (one of the first big estates to turn to organic farming 40 years ago), this wine is a beautiful expression of fruit with delicate and soft tannins.
Ageing
In our Famille Perrin cellar. Traditional vinification after destalking. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks with temperature regulation of 150 hl. Ageing in tanks and foudres (25%) for a year.
The vintage
The vintage started with a long winter and one of the driest ones in the past years followed by an inexistent Spring. The crop development was very slow due to important climatic variations. The winemakers’ work was therefore crucial to get good quality grapes in small quantities. 2013 was a complicated vintage and late but is wonderfully balanced and is very promising.
