The word 'canne' refers to the wooden tap on traditional foudres which allow for free-run juice to be sampled. This is indeed pure 'jus de goutte' made from 50-60yo vines following a 10 weeks cuvaison. Expansive mouthfeel and texture, smooth tannins, lifted and fresh aromatics sustained by fine bitters, this is simply excellent.                                                                                                                                             *Remark* N.B. Docteur en Lettres, Charlotte is an ancient manuscripts specialist. Her research has led her to countries like China and Ethiopia, where she learned the traditional methods of making papyrus from plants, as well as the art of natural pigments. The domaine's bottles are labelled by hand, some of them with paper produced on site using vine cuttings and local herbs.
