Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Tannins ? Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.
Domain and appellation
-
CAVE DE TAIN
Founded in 1933 by Louis Gambert de Loche, the Cave de Tain benefits from the expertise of nearly 300 winegrowers spread over around 1,000 hectares of vines to produce Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage, Saint-Joseph, Cornas and Saint-Peray appellation wines as well as vins de pays. Terroir : Granite in the northern part of the vineyard, fluvio-glacial alluvium and terraces of rolled Rhône pebbles in the southern part. Some loess (wind-blown deposits) in places. Vinification: All grapes destemmed. Traditional fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel or concrete vats. Vatting period of 20 to 25 days with gentle extraction methods. Fermentation and maceration temperatures controlled at around 26°C. Malolactic fermentation in vats before ageing. Ageing: 9 to 12 months, partly in vats to preserve the purity and freshness of the fruit and partly in 400-litre oak barrels (40%) of different ages to refine the structure, volume and length of the wine.
