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 approximately 1000 hectares of vines to produce Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage, Saint-Joseph, Cornas and Saint-Péray appellations as well as vins de pays. Terroir: clay-limestone and sandy soils located in the canton of St Donat. Vinification : Reception early in the morning to take advantage of the cool temperatures and gentle and rapid pressing of the grapes as soon as they arrive in the cellar to preserve their potential. Inerting of the lines and vats to protect the juice from oxidation. Separation of free-run juice and press juice. Cold settling for 24 to 48 hours. Alcoholic fermentation in vats at 16° - 18°. Regular stirring of the lees during the first months of maturation. No MLF. Ageing: Aged in vats at 14°C on fine lees to preserve the fruit and freshness.
