CHAVEYRON 1422 DOMAINE SALADIN WINE OF FRANCE 2020
Domaine Saladin is located in Saint Marcel d'Ardèche, a southern village of the Côtes du Rhône du Sud, halfway between Montélimar and Avignon, on the right bank of the Rhône.
Elisabeth, Marie-Laurence, Louis and Annick Saladin are at the head of Domaine Saladin, a family property passed down from father to son and father to daughters since 1422. The 18 hectares and 13 grape varieties
Rhodanians of the estate offer the particularity of having always been harvested by hand, cultivated and vinified organically.
“Chaveyron – 1422” is a selection of plots located in Saint Marcel d'Ardèche. The archives show that in 1422, Raymond Saladin bought a vine planter at a place called “Chaveyron”. A composition, a XNUMXth century copy of which is kept in the departmental archives of the Ardèche, attests: “Raymondi Saladini de Trihano Item unum Planterium situun in Chalvayrono”.
Since then, the generations of farmers-vine growers have succeeded one another.
The terroir is made up of “red” earth, ferrous, dotted with rolled pebbles. The exposure is oriented South-East on hillsides. To the north, oaks, a “Clapas” (heap of stones in patois) and a hedge of high cypresses authorized the plot. The yield reaches 28 hectoliters per hectare. No use of pesticides, herbicides or insecticides since the origin of the Domain. The harvest is entirely manual. Certified Organic Agriculture by Ecocert. Since 2006, Elisabeth and Marie-Laurence have chosen to downgrade this cuvée to Table Wine because it does not meet the standard of the approval commission. Vinification method: Syrah and Viognier are harvested by hand and vinified together. One month vatting in indigenous yeasts. Aging takes place in oak casks for 9 months.

On a naturally favorable site, 77 plots of vines are scattered within a vast area of 500 hectares on the mountainside.
They form here and there small terraces facing the Sainte-Victoire mountain. The vine has been cultivated there for several centuries.
Patiently, in harmony with nature and the woods that surround him, man walks the paths to cultivate the vine where it gives him the best grapes.
The terroir is that of the new Sainte Victoire appellation, an ecosystem naturally favorable to vines since Roman times. Château Grand Boise is the highest estate there, with vines between 300 and 640 meters.
The combination of altitude with good sunshine makes it possible to obtain wines of great freshness and great balance. No chemical fertilizers or weedkillers are used. The known origins of
La Grand'Boise as a domain dates back to 1610, the date of the oldest property deed found. It was in 1879 that the three estates (Grand'Boise, Cabassude and Les Brunets) united to form one. Traditionally family owned, the estate only changed hands three times in its entire history. Under the impetus of its new owner, a passionate doctor, the estate has very recently been thoroughly renovated. It has equipped itself with efficient and qualitative technical means. The olive-growing activity is revived with 800 olive trees on 3 hectares.
