    Information
    About the producer

    Located in Chanos-Curson, Domaine des Entrefaux spans 28 hectares in the Crozes-Hermitages appellation. This family domaine is managed by Charles et François Tardy, two winemakers committed to expressing the diversity of their terroir as faithfully as possible. They started the transition to organic viticulture some years ago and received certification in 2011. They also practice a few biodynamic methods to help sustain microbial life in the vineyard and prevent disease. They till the soils, cover crop the vines and limit yields; The vineyard is sits on a stony terrace called ‘Les Chassis” and is planted mostly to Syrah with 4 hectares of Marsanne and Roussane. They have also just acquired two hectares of Viognier and Chardonnay that they vinify as a Vin de Pays. Work in the winery tries to let nature lead where possible. No yeast is added and only a minimal amount of sulphur. Elevage takes place in oak and vats. This is a domaine that produces excellent wines with fresh fruit aromas at reasonable prices.

    About the wine

    While the domain offers a red with the same name, the white wine is also produced carefully, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. A truly indulgent wine, it is made up of 65% Marsanne and 35% Roussane planted on the hillside of Les Pends de Mercurol which is made up of pebbly and clay, chalky soil. In this 80-hectare parcel, the soil is ploughed and grassed over. Weed killers, synthetic products and chemical manure are banned. Harvesting is done by hand. During the wine-making process, François Tardy carries out pneumatic pressing and lets the wine ferment with indigenous yeasts only. After malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged for 12 months on lees in 225 litre barrels. This white Crozes-Hermitage must be enjoyed as soon as possible with an aperitif. However, we recommend you keep it for several years as over time, thanks to its complexity, it can become a real gastro wine.
