La Rougetière is not the most photogenic of the Domaine’s plots. Located at the entrance to the village of Cabrières, its main asset is a predominantly clay soil at an altitude of almost 400 m. This ensures that the Chardonnays ripen slowly, perfectly complementing the earlier, more powerful wines from Pertuis.
The combination of two very different plots, giving Chardonnay opposite personalities: opulent, fat and rich in Pertuis; lively, lemony and fresh at altitude in Cabrières. The blending of the resulting wines gives an image of the grape variety a world away from some of its southern counterparts, emphasizing overall balance rather than intensity and power.
MILLÉSIMES
This is the story of a Burgundian winemaker who came to Luberon. He drew on his roots to make unique wines in the south.
A family call and a timely proposal put the winemaker back on the road. Today, from north to south and south to north, each vintage is written in the plural.
