- TASTING NOTE: Full of bright red fruit, this is another beautifully crafted and energetic release. It jumps out of the glass with scents of pure, just-picked raspberries and cherries and an aromatic garrigue bouquet of lavender, sage, thyme and violet. Just as agile on the palate, it’s supple and fragrant, with a gentle caress of tannins adding to its crunchy-fruited drinkability.
- ABOUT THE WINE: All the fruit for Olivier Klein's excellent value Un Air Côtes du Rhône was drawn from the estate’s highland, sandy limestone vineyards set around the hamlet of Sabran. Everything was picked by hand and sorted, then mostly destemmed prior to a five-day cold soak. The ferment was natural and was followed by a maturation of between seven and eight months in concrete tanks. The wine is unfined and only saw a light filtration prior to bottling.
- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: La Réméjeanne is situated amid the oak-forested hills and rocky vineyards of Sabran, in the Rhône’s Gard department. These are wines that proudly speak of their place—high up in the hills (200-280m altitude) with soils comprised of sand and limestone. This highly distinctive terroir results in a range of fresh, highly refined Côtes du Rhônes brimming with fruit and character. They are far cooler and purer than many of the Côtes du Rhônes produced at lower altitudes and on alluvial soils. Working alongside his pioneering father, Rémy Klein, the young Olivier Klein continues to drive quality at this address skywards. All the grapes are hand-harvested, then undergo long, slow fermentations with indigenous yeasts before aging in concrete or older wood. Extractions and sulphur additions (if used at all) are kept to the bare minimum. Olivier Klein follows the great growers of the north as much as he does his southern counterparts and likes his reds with a bit of crunch. He, therefore, ensures he doesn’t pick too late and prefers an infusion-over-extraction approach to his winemaking.
