The « Les Graves » plot of Domaine de la Métairie d'Alon stands out for its unusual position: 250 metres above sea level, in a cool corridor swept by westerly winds, on steep slopes facing due west. The vines, farmed organically using Burgundian methods, are rooted in a very stony clay-limestone soil, the direct source of the minerality that marks this rosé. Whole bunches are pressed immediately by hand, with the first and last juices set aside to keep only the heart of the pressing at low pressure. Cold settling without sulphur, then fermentation in stainless steel tanks, preserve all the liveliness of the 2023 vintage. The colour is pink with bluish highlights. The nose opens first on bright citrus (lemon, Corsican clementine) before delicate floral notes of orange blossom heighten its elegance. The attack is round and generous, then citrus tension and a flinty, gunflint minerality gradually take over. The exceptionally long finish stretches out on a noble grapefruit bitterness and a hint of aniseed. Serve at 8°C with shellfish (grilled lobster, prawns with saffron, braised scallops), a red tuna tartare, grilled fish or duck with sweet spices.

Our team's opinion

The 2023 vintage of Les Graves is Corsican clementine on the attack and flint on the finish: a length and minerality you would not expect to find in a rosé. This high-altitude Pinot Noir is like nothing else.
