Jérôme Jouret "La Coulee Douce"

Grapes: Syrah Region: Rhone, France Vintage: 2025 Viticulture: Organic Soils: Clay + Limestone Vinification: Pruned using the Cordon de Royat method, three week carbonic maceration Aging: 5-6 months in large used barrels Fining or Filtering: None Sulfur: None added Notes from the Importer: Domaine Jérôme Jouret is a small family winery located on twelve hectares in the southern Ardeche. The organic ancient vines are planted on the steep and stony slopes of the Vallée de I’Ibie. Winemaker Jérôme Jouret left the local co-op in ’06 and has only made a few vintages since setting out on his own, however, the results so far have been stunning. The cooler climate of the region combined with a high elevation means that the fruit has longer hang time on the vines, this helps create wine with pronounced aromatics and fresh flavors.
