“The single vineyard 2011 Minervois “La Touge” is a smoking effort that gives up perfumed kirsch, toasted spice and licorice aromas and flavors in a medium to full- bodied, voluptuous and textured package. It has a great mid-palate, loads of fruit and a beautifully balanced, layered feel.”0 Chateau Maris
85% syrah, 15% grenache.

The Vintage:

ain was plentiful at the start of the year with more than 200mm in December and a further 70mm in January. The humid soils took a while to warm and spring growth started a little later than in previous years.
Harvest began on the 8th September with the Syrah the first to be ready.
Patience was the name of the game for both the fermentation and maceration and we had to take care not to rack the wines too early. In the end we had some lovely black-fruited carignan with ripe, concentrated tannins, superb grenache with generosity and texture and some bright, aromatic syrah.

The Soils:

Dark brown and red coloured soils.
The grapes for this wine come from vineyards planted on hard and soft limestone and alluvial soils. The texture is balanced and is light at the top, becoming increasingly heavy the deeper you go. The vertical clay migration reduces the carbon levels.
