Details and technical informations about Domaine du Colombier's Cuve 5.
Discover the grape variety: Mourvaison
Simple, light and fruity reds with a lightly coloured clear ruby hue, soft tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, showing understated aromas of red fruits. Discreet, rustic Provençal profile. Almost disappeared, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its heritage value, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the Provençal vineyard. Native French black variety from Provence, formerly grown in the south-east.

The wine region of Ardèche
Vast Rhône IGP with contrasting southern-Rhône terroirs: signature Syrah as king red — fruity and spicy with notes of blackberry, blackcurrant, raspberry, violet and a peppery touch, supple tannins. Round Merlot, structured Cabernet and sunny Grenache as backup. Signature Chardonnay and Viognier as aromatic whites (peach, apricot, white flowers, citrus). Fresh rosés.
The wine region of Méditerranée
Vast IGP of south-east France (Provence, Vaucluse, Var, Corsica, Ardèche), 75% rosés. Fresh, fruity rosés with signature notes of strawberry, raspberry, citrus, white flowers and a Mediterranean touch, taut and thirst-quenching on the palate — the quintessential sunny aperitif. Supple reds blending Grenache, Syrah, Cabernet and Merlot (red fruits, garrigue, spice), full whites of Viognier (apricot, flowers) and Chardonnay. Generous everyday wines, expression of the south.
The word of the wine: Yeast
Micro-organisms at the base of all fermentative processes. A wide variety of yeasts live and thrive naturally in the vineyard, provided that treatments do not destroy them. Unfortunately, their replacement by laboratory-selected yeasts is often the order of the day and contributes to the standardization of the wine. Yeasts are indeed involved in the development of certain aromas.
