Château Le Devoy Martine, AOP Lirac, Rouge
In a quiet part of the Rhône Valley appellation of Lirac, Véronique Lombardo of Château Le Devoy Martine crafts understated and complex wines on her 4th generation family owned domaine. With 40 hectares of land, Véronique strives to keep the character of vineyard in the bottle from her gravelly clay soils mixed with some limestone. Very few oak barrels are used in her wines.
Presentation
Véronique, the owner and winemaker at le Devoy Martine, is a single-minded figure, whose obsession is translating the product of her immaculately farmed vineyards into the bottle with as little distortion as possible. This wine is meant to reward immediate consumption by delivering the goods in the form of a light but complexe structure, enhanced by bright and gorgeously fruit-forward aromas.
