Information
Olivier Pithon is the grandson of an Anjou wine grower, and also has a grower for a grandson in the Coteaux du Layon. Having trained among the family vines, and after completing various spells at in other vineyards (including several years in the Bordeaux region), Olivier Pithon settled in Calce, near Perpignan, in 2001. His vineyard, covering just over eight hectares, is farmed biodynamically. Olivier Pithon's wines are authentic, direct and very expressive.
This cuvée is very accessible from its earliest stages, with a nose featuring notes of raspberry, spices and leather. It is supple and concentrated on the palate, an incredibly pleasurable wine that can be consumed within four years or perhaps even a little longer, depending on the vintage. The blend is a reflection of the terroir and is therefore a combination a diverse grape varieties and soil types (schist, clay, limestone, marl). These terroir-driven wines are blended in concrete vats in order to preserve the freshness of the grapes.
