Description
Andréa Calek Chatons de Garde is a natural red wine produced in the Rhône Valley, specifically in the southern Ardèche. This wine is made from 100% Syrah, grown in clay-limestone soils, which contributes to its distinctive profile.
Winemaking
The vinification of Andréa Calek Chatons de Garde includes a 21-day carbonic maceration with whole bunches, keeping the stems intact, and fermentation at low temperature (16°C). It is then matured in used Burgundy oak barrels without the addition of sulphites. This careful and natural process results in a wine with no added sulphites, standing out for its purity and authenticity.
Taste
Andréa Calek Chatons de Garde is characterised by its smooth taste and light body, with marked notes of blackberries and spices. This wine has a balanced structure, with a solid acidity that brings freshness and vivacity. Herbal flavours of mint and rosemary are prominent, providing an aromatic complexity that is complemented by a mineral touch from the terroir. Ageing in oak barrels adds silky texture and vanilla nuances, rounding off a taste profile that is both elegant and accessible.
Andréa Calek Chatons de Garde is a wine that can be enjoyed young, but also has good ageing potential, and can evolve favourably in bottle for 4 to 6 years. For an optimal experience, it is recommended to decant it or open it in advance, and serve it at a temperature of around 15°C. This wine pairs perfectly with simple dishes such as a piece of roast beef, highlighting its fresh and gourmet character.
In short, Andréa Calek Chatons de Garde is a wine that reflects the expertise of its producer and the richness of the Ardèche terroir, offering a unique tasting experience for natural wine lovers.
