Domaine de Trevallon IGP Alpilles red 2023

Domaine de Trévallon IGP Alpilles Rouge 2023 is a superb expression of this iconic estate on the northern slopes of the Alpilles. The vintage follows Trévallon’s historic identity with an equal blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Syrah grown on exceptionally stony limestone and clay soils.

Following an extremely dry growing season, harvest began with Syrah on September 4 and finished with Cabernet Sauvignon on September 19. The grapes are hand harvested and fermented as whole clusters without destemming or inoculated yeasts. Ageing lasts more than two years in large foudres, with minimal racking, followed by traditional egg-white fining and bottling without filtration.
The 2023 combines Mediterranean character with remarkable freshness. Syrah contributes flesh, pepper and spice, while Cabernet Sauvignon provides structure, depth and length. Fine tannins and an invigorating saline finish give the wine impressive energy and serious long-term potential.
