Their Les Garennes parcel is situated on stony, pebble-rich soils around the villages of Pont-d'Isère and Beaumont-Montéux, planted with old vines (~20 years old) to allow for complexity and balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaking \u0026amp; Vintage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe blend is 60% Roussanne and 40% Marsanne, following classic proportions for a Crozes-Hermitage Blanc. Grapes are hand-picked and vinified with minimal intervention, respecting tradition. \u003cbr\u003eAfter a gentle pressing, the wine was fermented and then aged on its lees for approximately 6 to 9 months in a mix of demi-muids (600-liter barrels) and concrete egg-shaped vessels, achieving a balance between roundness and minerality. \u003cbr\u003eThe 2023 vintage was characterized by a mild winter, followed by spring rains and a hot, drought-stricken summer with hail. Harvesting occurred from August 17 to September 20, requiring precision to preserve acidity and aromatic purity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood Pairings \u0026amp; Serving Suggestions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe chilled at 10–12°C to showcase its freshness and structure.\u003cbr\u003eFood pairing: Ideal as an aperitif, with shrimp platters, grilled white fish (such as sole or sea bream), and dishes like chicken in cream sauce, poultry with morels, or rich white meats complemented by herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Les Alexandrins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53693413392716,"sku":"29865","price":35.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0950\/7235\/4636\/files\/Domaine-les-Alexandrins-Bottleshot-Crozes-Hermitage-Blanc-Les-Garennes.jpg?v=1761357435","url":"https:\/\/ka3irg-7v.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/2023-crozes-hermitage-les-garennes-domaine-les-alexandrins-rhone-frankreich","provider":"Feinste-Weine.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
