The Maison Les Alexandrins is a globally renowned vineyard, located in the northern Rhône region, France. Positioned on the beautiful limestone hillsides of the southeast, it provides ideal conditions for the production of exceptionally high-quality wine. The vines, comprised of pinot noir and chardonnay, are carefully maintained, featuring short pruning, thinning, and manual harvesting. Their depth allows for deep rooting, which enhances the concentration of tannins, colors, and aromas. Wine production begins with controlled alcoholic and malo-lactic fermentation, using selected yeasts, and then the wine is stored in French oak barrels for 12 to 18 months. This process aims to enhance the premium organoleptic qualities and improve the balance, depth, and complexity of the aromas. Once bottled on the estate, the range of wines include whites, reds, and rosés, distinguished by their varied qualities and complexity. The white wines are delicate and expressive, with fruity and floral notes and a crisp, fresh palate. The reds are rich and structured, with smooth tannins and a subtle aromatic bouquet. The rosés are contrasting, offering red fruit and floral notes, much to the delight of wine enthusiasts. Maison Les Alexandrins provides their customers with quality wines and a unique taste experience.
