Famille Perrin Nature Côtes du Rhône Blanc - 2021

Presentation

Certified Ecocert, Perrin Nature is both an "organic" Côtes-du-Rhône and a great wine. Stemming from our experience in organic farming (Beaucastel was one of the first major French estates to turn to organic farming 40 years ago), this wine has great freshness combining fruity and floral aromas.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested early in the morning to preserve their freshness. After pressing, the juices are cold settled in order to remove suspended particles. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with controlled temperatures of 16 ° C. The wines are then racked and aged in stainless steel tanks until bottling.

The vintage

2021 is a vintage marked by freshness, which is similar to the vintages we had in the eighties and nineties. It is also what we call a "winegrower vintage", human intervention and the care given to the vines were decisive for the quality of the vintage. Marked by climatic vagaries, with an episode of frost in April and interrupted harvest because of rain, this year has indeed required constant investment from our teams in the vineyard. Their attention and their commitment have borne their fruit: this vintage is very promising with lots of freshness and great balance.

Tasting

Pretty pale yellow colour, shiny and translucent. Delicate and refined, the nose offers seductive notes of anise, fennel and peaches. This wine has an ample, round and complex palate well balanced with a beautiful freshness and superb notes of apricots and white flowers with a long finish.
