Domaine des Gravennes, Terre d'Histoire, Cotes du Rhone Villages Suze La Rousse, France 2019

Domaine des Gravennes, Terre d'Histoire, Cotes du Rhone Villages Suze La Rousse, France 2019

The Estate

Domaine des Gravennes has been in the same family for 4 generations and is now run by two young brothers, Luc and Rémi. Luc was the first to return to the family estate back in 2011, having worked in wine on four different continents; older brother Rémi then joined him, leaving behind his life as an engineer to return home and pursue his passion for the vine.

Highly motivated the pair of them, they have given the estate a serious shot in the arm, creating delicious, balanced and elegant organic wines which have been gathering admirers in the French Press and beyond.

The Wine

2019 was another impressive year in the Southern Rhône, and the Terre d'Histoire is full bodied with juicy blackberry fruit, ripe tannins, a soft spiciness and the light scent of Provencal garrigue.

What really sets it apart though is the exceptional brightness and purity of the fruit and the wonderful overall elegance and freshness - a result of the excellent growing conditions, the brothers' exacting standards in the vineyard and their light touch in the winery.
