Producer Information

Maison Les Alexandrins is the newly renamed collaboration between Nicolas Jaboulet, formerly of the eponymous winery in Tain, winemaker Guillaume Sorrel and viticulturalist Alexandre Caso. Each person brings their expertise to this micro-negociant, an extension of Domaine Les Alexandrins, established in 2015. The aim of Maison Les Alexandrins remains the same: to buy parcels of fruit from some of the top growers in each appellation in the Northern Rhone. Following the construction of a new winery in Tain-l'Hermitage in 2019, Maison and Domaine Les Alexandrins is now a permanent fixture in the Northern Rhone.

Grapes

Viognier,

Production

The viognier vines are planted in the mountainous part of the Coteaux de l'Ardeche. Located to the west of the Rhone Valley, the Coteaux de l'Ardeche is known for its long and warm growing season. The altitude here ensures that the grapes ripen slowly and retain excellent, refreshing levels of acidity.

The grapes were harvested early in the morning to preserve freshness. As Viognier grapes have a thick skin that impede the extraction of their aromatic palate, a long pressing at low temperatures was carried out. The must was then fermented at low temperatures and aged in stainless steel vats to preserve its vibrant and fresh character.

Tasting Notes

This particularly fresh Viognier offers an aromatic bouquet of white stone fruit and citrus on the nose. On the palate, the wine shows balance and freshness, thanks to juicy acidity, and hints of exotic fruit.
