Information
Established at the end of the 19th century, Domaine Coursodon has been in the same family for generations and has practised sustainable farming for several decades. Its 15 hectares of vineyards, all within the Saint-Joseph appellation, are cultivated for both red and white Saint-Joseph wines (13 hectares red and 2 hectares white). Located primarily in the Mauves area, the vineyard's granite terroir is ideal for growing Syrah. Pierre Coursodon and his son Jérôme currently manage the property and produce delicate and elegant wines.
Paradis Saint-Pierre is a blend of mainly Marsanne grapes supplemented by a small quantity of Roussanne. These two grapes are grown in shallow granitic soils, and are sustainably cultivated. The grapes are harvested by hand; the slow, gentle pneumatic pressing is performed on whole bunches. The wine is settled and undergoes alcoholic fermentation in barrels, then malolactic fermentation, and is then matured on fine lees, with regular weekly stirring. The bouquet produces indulgent aromas of ripe fruit and honey. It also hints at an intense wine combining freshness and smoothness, as well as aromas of toasted almonds and hazelnut.
