Terroir

DESCRIPTION: the TOTALEMENT IN cuvée is a blend of four red grape varieties where Syrah and very old Carignan vines predominate. Its blend is strictly identical to that of the JOSEPH MAZARD cuvée, but its ageing process is entirely different.

LOCATION: 300 metres above sea level, on the plateau overlooking the village of Talairan, in the heart of the garrigue and in a preserved natural environment where many wild orchids grow.

SOIL: alternating conglomerates, sandstone, and fluvial sandstone marls locally known as Carcassonne molasses. Their sedimentation occurred during the Cuisian - Lutetian and Bartonian, three geological stages belonging to the EARLY AND LATE EOCENE epoch.

Viticulture & Vinification

HARVEST: manual / hand-picked.

YIELD: 35 hl/ha.

VINIFICATION: the grape varieties are vinified separately. The grapes are destemmed and not crushed. Whole berries macerate for 15 days to undergo fermentation.

AGEING: 4 months in vats, followed by racking and an additional 12 months of bottle ageing.

BOTTLING: after light filtration.

CORK: natural cork.

Sommelier's Note

"Highly original, this cuvée is dominated by mentholated notes that open up to aromas of red and dark fruits, plum, bay leaf, and chocolate mint. Showing great fluidity on the palate, it relies on a supple texture with silky tannins, extending the pleasure into a fresh finish filled with garrigue scents."
