2018 Anders F. Steen Les Vignes des Enfants

WINEMAKER: Anders Frederik Steen & Anne Bruun Blauert
VARIETAL: Petite Sirah
REGION: Ardèche, FR
VITICULTURE: Organic/Biodynamic

"From a beautiful parcel of twenty year old vines planted with a rare strain of Syrah, Seline. The plants are trained in goblet over a complex terroir of clay, limestone and marnes bleues and the fruit is destemmed and fermented on the skins for eight days, before being pressed into old barriques for two and a half years. From a warmer vintage, this is incredibly savoury, with oxidative notes and layers of black fruit, brine and spice." - Tutto

Former chef, once sommelier at Noma, Anders started making wine in 2013 alongside legendary Jura winemaker, Jean-Marc Brignot. Now settled in the village of Valvignères in the Ardèche, his wines are truly unique and highly sought-after across the world. Grapes and only grapes, no adds, no sulphur. Tiny quantities.
