Rhonéa - La Porte d'Autanne, AOC Cairanne, Rouge, 2023

RHONÉA, as the name suggests, is the trusted choice for Rhône Valley wines. Our Artisans winegrowers & winemakers have been committed since 1925 to bring you the best from our vineyards & let you taste more than just wine, but the quality & authenticity of our terroirs.

2023 was a year full of contrasts: warm temperatures at the end of December and beginning of January raised concerns about early budding; a return to normalcy continued until February with relatively cool weather; a persistent drought accompanied by a strong Mistral wind, followed by regular rainfall until the end of June. Thanks to constant vigilance in the vineyards, the berries were healthy and well-ripened when harvest started, promising one of the finest vintages of the past decade.

3 complementary soils on hillsides and terracesl: white limestone clay, red clay and sand.

Manual harvest. Traditional vinification in stainless steel vats with regular punching down and pumping over at controlled temperature (28-30°C). Long vatting (25-28 days).
