Domaine de Trépaloup

Le Clos des Oliviers 2022

AOP Sommières

A blend made with 65% Syrah and 35% Mourvèdre grown on hillside plots in the middle of scrubland and pine forests. The soil is red clay, hard limestone scree and limestone gravel. This cuvée comes from a manual harvest, grapes are destemmed and then crushed. Each grape variety is vinified separately in traditional maceration for 20 days, with punching down. Aged in barrels for one year after blending. Aging potential: 5 to 7 years. The mouth is full and the fruit is clean and persistent. Long finish. Pairs well with oven-roasted mutton or beef and all grilled meats cooked with herbes de Provence.

Rémi Vandôme

Rémi is a calm and intensely focused person, but he does not like to talk about himself. He'd rather promote the artists who design his labels and the musicians who come to the domaine for concerts open to the public during summer evenings. Yet, when he talks about the domaine that he purchased with his brother over 20 years ago, his deep love for this corner of garrigue near Saint Clément is inspiring. The soils are a combination of red clay and limestone gravel which drain well - a perfect foundation to produce high quality wines. He converted the entire domaine to organic agriculture 15 years ago in pursuit of purity and elegance.  His quests is bearing beautiful fruits, he seems to have found a peace of mind in the calm and magnificient environment that he has preserved and developed.
