Herv Souhaut
The Blanc is a blend of 70% Viognier and 30% Roussanne, from yields of 20hl/ha, is directly pressed with maturation on the fine lees and bottling without filtration. It has aromas of apricot and waxy pear with some herbal notes and an agreeably mouth-filling texture. Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet was created in 1993 by Herv Souhaut. His holdings on the acidic granite soils of the northern Rhne and the southern Ardche are a mixture of new and ancient vinesfrom 50 to 100 years old. Herv Souhauts holdings are minuscule, only five hectares and he employs only organic and biodynamic winemaking techniques. The Syrah grapes for his VDP cuve come from a tiny parcel of land along the slopes of the Doux River and the vines are on average 40 years old. At the end of September, the grapes are harvested and then undergo a very long maceration at a low temperature. The wine is then matured on the lees in second-hand oak casks for six months and then bottled without being filtered.
