Bruno Duchêne - La Luna - Rosé 2020
Domaine Bruno Duchêne is located in Banyuls, on the Côte Vermeille in Roussillon. It was created by Bruno Duchêne in 2002. Before, Bruno Duchêne was a distributor of wild mushrooms in the Loire Valley. He owns 4 hectares spread over 4 plots in Banyuls and Collioure. The vines are cultivated organically, and due to the ideal climate of the region, Bruno does on average only 3 sulfur treatments per year (which is low) and as the odium is not a problem either, the copper is never used. The wines ferment spontaneously in vats, then are racked in barrels for aging.
La Luna Rosé comes from two plots of vines on the Cru Banyuls. It is a blend of Grenache (40%), Syrah (30%) and Mourvèdre (30%). The grapes are put in direct pressing and the aging is carried out in stainless steel vats for 2/3 and in barrels for the rest.
Grape varieties: 40% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre, 30% Syrah
