Mas de Libian - Vin de Pétanque 2020
Mas de Libian is located in Saint-Marcel-d'Ardèche on the right bank of the Rhône, in Ardèche. It has belonged to the Thibon family since 1670, a family estate passed down from generation to generation. The 25-hectare vineyard has always been cultivated organically, and the vineyard is certified biodynamic. The property also consists of 8 hectares of olive trees, cereals, hay, garden, bees ... Since September 2016, Aurélien, the son of one of the current owners, has also settled in Libian.
Vin de Pétanque is a blend of Grenache (75%), with 25% Syrah, Mourvèdre, Counoise and Vaccarèse. The harvest is carried out entirely by hand with a very careful sorting of grapes in the vineyards. The harvest is fully destemmed and the varieties are blended together in tank. The grapes are lightly crushed, and undergo a short maceration of about 5 days before pressing.
