The story behind the wine

Ribes du Vallat takes its name from the vineyard plots where its grapes are grown. These stretch across the hillsides, known in Provençal as "ribes", bordering the "vallat", a ditch that runs through the estate, connecting the lands of the two families.

The Ribes du Vallat range comes in three styles: white, rosé and red.

Winemaker: Sébastien Alban.

Tasting notes

The nose opens with aromas of fresh redcurrants and crushed raspberries, leading to a smooth, velvety and concentrated palate. Red and black fruit flavours are complemented by peppery notes, adding depth and complexity.

Ageing potential: 5 to 7 years.

From grape to wine

The grapes come from vines aged between 10 and 50 years, grown on south-facing clay-limestone slopes with a gradient of 10–20%. They are harvested at full ripeness.

Winemaking involves an extended maceration period, with frequent rack-and-return operations (délestage) carried out with aeration. The wine is then aged on its lees for seven months in temperature-controlled tanks, allowing it to develop richness and complexity while preserving its aromatic expression.
