Clos Bellane 2022 Cotes du Rhone Rouge Villages "Valreas"
The 2022 Clos Bellane Côtes du Rhône Villages Valréas Rouge is a vibrant expression of Rhône Valley terroir, blending 50% Grenache and 50% Syrah from 30-year-old vines cultivated organically at 410 meters elevation in Valréas—the northernmost and coolest village of the Southern Rhône.
This wine presents a deep violet hue with intense highlights. On the nose, it offers aromas of blackcurrant, green pepper, olives, and a hint of menthol, underpinned by earthy and undergrowth notes. The palate reveals smooth, velvety tannins complemented by a refreshing acidity, leading to a harmonious finish with elegant fruity and spicy nuances.
Vinified with native yeasts and aged for 12 months—70% in concrete tanks and 30% in used French oak barrels—this wine showcases a balance of freshness and complexity. It's an excellent companion to charcuterie, cured cheeses, and red meats.
