2019 Domaine Milan La Carrée
WINEMAKER: Henri & Théo Milan
REGION: Provence, FR
VARIETAL: Roussanne
VITICULTURE: Organic
"The La Carrée is a refined, elegant, complex wine that shows the wonderful characteristics of the Roussanne grape in its best light. It is labelled as a Vin de France because white wines made from 100% Roussanne are not permitted in the Les Baux de Provence appellation.
The vines were planted in 1991 on blue clay soil. The grapes are direct pressed and the wine is fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged in barrel. No filtration or fining is used to preserve the flavour of this special wine. This wine will keep for a long time and continue to improve in the bottle. We only have a small supply of this sought-after wine as only 1000 bottles are produced." - Living Wines
Domaine Milan is a producer of elegant organic wines from Provence and occupies prime real estate in the holiday town of St Remy de Provence. The immaculate vineyards are framed by both suburban estates and the famous nearby Chaîne des Alpilles mountains that provide climatic protection for the vineyards. Here, the gregarious Henri Milan along with his son Théo crafts elegant wines using no chemicals, no additives, no commercial yeasts and, in some cases, no added sulphur.
