2019 Rasteau Les Coteaux 80% Grenache 20% Syrah. The unique elevation of Escaravailles vineyards is yet again evident in this delicious cuvee, coming from lieu-dit 'Le Ratanaud' located 330-350m, later longer ripening lending that hallmark freshness that is so welcoming. Nothing complicated or over worked in the winemaking here, all the fruit is destemmed and vinified separately, the caps are punched down and pumping over and aged in concrete for 15 months prior to bottling. The wine has a very attractive core of bright sweet violets, raspberry and redcurrant, soft tannin with a good crunch of acidity, this is a wine that won't let you down, drink now and over the next 3-5 years.

Domaine des Escaravailles
Domaines des Escaravailles was established in 1953 by Jean-Louis Ferran and his two sons, Daniel and Jean-Pierre, in the village of Rasteau.
Today it is run by the third generation of the family, Gilles, the son of Daniel. With vineyards on not only the clay, limestone hillsides of Rasteau, but also in Cairanne, Roaix, Villedieu and St Roman de Malegarde. The estate is run organically and everything is done by hand with the wines made in the cellars in the heart of the property in Rasteau.
The estate takes it's name from the Occitan word for the Scarab Beetle, which you will also find adorning the labels of the wines.
