J°221 Red
The meeting between the vine and a self-taught young man with a desire to create products that reflect the complexity of nature. Antoine Armanet represents this new generation of winemakers constantly improving and committed to sustainable production. The plots are surrounded by scrubland and meadows, which naturally preserve a rich and rare biodiversity. The Mistral wind purifies the vines and helps reduce the hot summer temperatures. The environmental conditions favor a slow maturation of the berries and thus offer superb aromatic complexities in the wines.
