Domaine la Roubine, La Terre d'Yvonne, AOP Sablet, White
The estate is located in Gigondas, in the south of the Rhône Valley, at the foot of the “Dentelles de Montmirail” massif. The lands are located partly on the main plateau on the left bank of the Ouvèze, and for the AOC Gigondas at the foot of the Dentelles, on hillsides, at an altitude of 300m; these vines require more rigor and attention but they also bring finesse and concentration to the wines. The land is clayey-limestone, partly made up of Dentelles scree.
The story
The estate remains small. Including the family lands and those which the couple has in rent, it brings together 15.5 hectares of vines on several appellations: Gigondas (5 ha), Vacqueyras (5 ha), Séguret (0.5 ha) and Sablet (5 ha) ).
Vinification
Aged in half-muids (70%) and oak barrels (30%) for 12 months.
