Château Yssole - Chabaud 2022
Vinerard Story
A winemaker from Burgundy, Paul Aegerter leads Domaine Aegerter (in Nuits-Saint-Georges) and Domaine Clavelier (in Comblanchien) in Burgundy, as well as the Hérout cider house in Normandy. Paul is a passionate artisan with a dedication to perfection.
Located in Cabasse, in the heart of the Var region, Château Yssole is an 18-hectare estate cultivated with sustainable practices.
Thanks to the expertise of Paul, estate manager Laurent Natalini, and Michel and Marylin, the wines of Château Yssole have been crafted in the spirit of the Grand Wines of Burgundy:
elegant, refined, and created through meticulous parcel-based winemaking and blending to capture the unique character of each terroir.
Appellation: Côtes de Provence
Grape varieties: 50% Grenache, 30% Cinsault, 20% Syrah
Vinification : The blend is based on Grenache and Cinsault to which
is added Syrah which plays its role in aromatic complexity. The harvest is done in boxes mainly at night when the freshness is present in order to favor the aromatic potential and to avoid oxidation. The juice is cold settled for 48 hours. The vinification continues entirely in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats.
