Xavier Vignon, Xavier, AOP Ventoux, Red
Xavier inherited from his parents two fundamental values: the love for a job well done and the capacity to transmit knowledge. His in-depth knowledge, his mentors, all the vintners have been working with and his incredible memory have been forging his style and identity : terroir driven, fruity and complex wines supported by freshness and minerality. Each cuvee under the Arcane series is the solo expression of a vintage, a grape or a terroir.
The story

Both technological and polyphenolic ripeness were close to perfect. Grapes (Grenache & Syrah) were cofermented for more complex-ity.AsmallbatchofextremelyoldSyrahwereagedinbarrel . The rest of the blend was aged in concrete to preserve the fruit purity.
