Rasteau Les Gadilles 2022 6x75cl

A fine and powerful wine with numerous ripe fruit aromas on the nose and on the palate presents good structure and great potential.

Vineyards

The vineyard of Rasteau is situated some kilometres far from “Les Dentelles de Montmirail”. It is one of the most imposing of the department of Vaucluse. It spreads out on brown-chalky soils and poor soils on marl.

Vintage

We had to “keep calm and carry on” throughout this season of drought and heat to constantly adapt the winegrowing work right up to the last minute; responding fast to curb the vegetation when the welcome rains arrived and remaining patient to allow the grapes to reach full maturity. All this made 2022 an astonishing vintage that, as it turned out, was more luminous than sunny.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested when they are matured. The vinification is carried out in the traditional way: the whole grapes are destemmed. Vatting lasts between 15 and 21 days with daily pumping over. Ageing is performed in vats. Blending is then carried out. The wine is bottled from 12 to 16 months after maturing.
