Cotes du Rhone Villages RASTEAU

 

This is a new vineyard bought by the Domaine Mazurd called "La Combe de l'Eoune". This vineyard is located in front of the Dentelles of Montmirail on an very sunny hillside .

Even if the region soil is hot but the nights are  fresh, so the wines are well balanced.

Like in Chateauneuf du Pape, in Rasteau the king of cepages is the grenache.

The soils are not so stony but they are red and white clay so they offer fine and elegant wines.
