2023 Domaine des Ardoisières Silice Rouge
Description

The Silice Rouge is light and tangy like Beaujolais, yet floral and peppery like Syrah. A simply stunning, knockout wine. Light-bodied, wild strawberry, violet, stony, pepper, bright.
From Domaine des Ardoisieres, it seems Mont Blanc is everywhere. The towering mountain watches over this small estate near the Swiss border, originally planted during Roman times but later overgrown with forest. A passionate group of locals and enthusiasts cleared the vineyard in 1998 and began piecing the steep terraces back together to create Domaine des Ardoisieres. Since 2005, Champagne native Brice Omont has taken over the winemaking and is now considered one of the most exciting producers in France. Brice’s wines are brilliantly unique and capture the stony, mineral character of the vineyard terraces with an amazing crystalline purity.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
