Domaine du Coulet - Matthieu Barret - Brise Cailloux 2018
Domaine du Coulet is located in Cornas, in the Rhône Valley. It has belonged to Matthieu Barret since 1998. He offers two distinct ranges of wines which are produced on the same convictions: the “Domaine” range which comes exclusively from grapes from the Domaine du Coulet vineyard, very oriented on the expression of minerality and of the terroirs of Cornas. His other range, Matthieu Barret SARL, is based on sharing with other producers. The way to create the different selections is multiple and depends on its partners, their desires and the purpose which must be as close as possible to the vineyard. The vines are cultivated organically and biodynamically.
Brise Cailloux is a Cornas from Domaine du Coulet, made from Syrah from mass selection of old vines from the estate. The vinification is carried out with indigenous yeasts. Aging lasts 18 months in a 10 hectoliters terracotta jar and 20 hectoliters Diamante concrete.
Grape variety: 100% Syrah
