Domaine D’Argenson Côte-de-Brouilly Cuvée Pater 2022

TERROIR
The “Pater” vintage comes from the work of blending plots “around my father’s house”. Climbing from 282 to 401m, they reward beautiful panoramas over the Ardières valley. Our Gamay feet, cut into gobelet shape, have an average age of 63 years. The soils are composed of blue stones of eruptive origin.
 
WINEMAKING
This is where our 2nd week of manual harvest begins, at optimal maturity. Maceration in whole bunches over 12 to 14 days in concrete tanks, followed by gentle pneumatic pressing. Aging is partially carried out in oak barrels.

90 Points - James Suckling

Forest berries, strawberries, wet stones and dried flowers on the nose follow through to a medium body with fine, firm tannins and bright acidity. Lively with energetic fruit throughout and a succulent, spicy finish. Drink or hold.
