There's a hidden gully on the property, you can't see it until you're in it. Rocky, cool, even in summer, surrounded by wild fig and cherry plum trees. It's where we go to disappear for lunch on hot days in the vineyard.
Rouge Clair tastes like that spot. Clairet (a traditional Bordeaux style, lighter than red, deeper than rosé) used to be made everywhere here, then it vanished. The 2024 vintage, cool and tense, gave us 100% Merlot that tastes like rocks and herbs instead of plums. Mineral, nervy, racy but ripe.
It's the wine you want when it's not time for a red wine but rosé feels too light. Drink it cool but not cold.
