Northern Rhône, Domaine Luyton-fleury, Origine, Aoc Saint-joseph, Rouge
Pascal Luyton and Raphaël Fleury are two cousins passionate about wine and the Northern Rhône region. Taking over the family vineyards was a natural choice to continue their family's vineyard legacy, and that's how Domaine Luyton-Fleury was born. Situated in close proximity to Mauves, this vineyard brings forth exquisite wines from Saint-Joseph, Crozes-Hermitage, and Saint-Péray. In essence, it showcases the epitome of Rhône excellence!
Presentation
This wine is made from a single vineyard averaging 60+ years and rooted deep in granite slopes in high lying terraces which can only be harvested by hand. The steep slopes benefit from exceptional drainage, sunshine. Combine this with good vine maturity, and the Luyton and Fleury guys are able to produce unique wines expressing tremendous freshness, melted tannins and yet an almost ethereal style with full-on terroir expression.
Vinification
Hand-picked and manually sorted and fully destemmed. Partially vinified in stainless steel vessels (for the alcoholic fermentation) and transferred for malolactic fermentation.
