Domaine Les 4 Vents La Rage Crozes-Hermitage 2023
A distinctive organic Crozes-Hermitage Blanc from old-vine Marsanne, combining floral perfume and honeyed richness with dried-fruit depth and a long, structured finish.
🍇 About the wine
La Rage is made from 40-year-old Marsanne vines planted at Roche-de-Glun in the southern part of the Crozes-Hermitage appellation. The grapes are harvested by hand, pressed directly and settled before fermentation.
Vinification takes place in vats and demi-muids with indigenous yeasts, followed by ten months of ageing in the same vessels. This approach gives the wine breadth and texture while preserving its aromatic character.
