A full, ripe and rounded style. Surprisingly tannic for the vintage, this has quite a serious, textural force. Give it a year or so to soften. From vines planted on blue marl soils at altitude, all destemmed then aged for 15 months in concrete tanks. Certified Haute Valeur Environnementale. Drinking range: 2027 - 2033 Rating: 93 Matt Walls www.mattwalls.co.uk (Nov 2024)
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.
