Matthieu Barret "J'Aurai Ta Peau" 2024
Just south of his headquarters in Cornas, our Northern Rhone hero, Matthieu Barret, crafts this orange beauty in Valaurie dans la Drôme. Harvesting 100% roussanne grapes from clay and limestone terroirs, he lets the juice sit on the skins for 3 weeks, then rests it five months in concrete vats. The result is a lightly textured and invitingly perfumed beauty boasting a range of floral, citrus, and stone fruit notes. A whiff of salt and light supportive tannins seal the deal.
Practicing organic and biodynamic. 100% rousanne. 3 weeks skin contact. Aging in concrete. Allan, Valaurie dans la Drôme, Rhone Valley, France.
