Exotic fruits, honey  and subtle toast notes

Exotic fruits, honey and subtle toast notes

Stephanie & Olivier Rame, wife and husband, are the third generation of their family at Maison Ventenac. Their vineyards are in Cabardès, the only Languedoc appellation that allows Atlantic and Mediterranean grape varieties, offering a unique exploration of flavours. Their location around Ventenac-Cabardès is famed for limestone, chalky soils, which gives their wines saline and fresh characters. Olivier's philosophy is to allow the unique terroir to shine through in the wines, presenting them as naturally as possible and raising in terra cotta urns and concrete vats to enhance their purity. The village of Ventenac-Cabardès and the surrounding region are famed for the distinctive nature of the limestone vein running through them. The vines – planted on hillsides around Maison Ventenac – benefit fully from this special soil structure, formed 50 million years ago when the area was still beneath the Mediterranean. This gives these wines their mineral, saline and fresh character. clarification. Fermentation at 18° in 300 hl stainless steel tanks. 25% malolactic fermentation. Minerality and focus, backed by an aromatic complexity of exotic fruits, honey and subtle toast notes. A balanced structure on the palate both lively, rich, with a silky texture.
