 The sandy slopes, the sun of midday and the patience of nine generations worked the vineyard of this Winegrowing whose annual production is approximately 1000 hectolitres.
On nearly 21 hectares are planted cordial type of vines: grenache, syrah, mourvèdre, cinsault, bourboulenc etc…
The wine making is ensured by the owner Françoise Simon. Journalist for the written press and television with Paris, Doctor ès-lettres and teaching at the University of Nanterre, Françoise Simon became vine grower following the death of his father in 1995.
To delight your tables and to emphasize the mets that you present to it, the Moulin Du Pourpré produced of the wines of three colors: The RED resulting from an assembly from 50% syrah and 50% grenache is very traditional, elegant, with round tannins. Very delicate with the nose, it intense, is scented, fleshy stops some with one prevailing of overripe red fruits and blackcurrant, accompanied by notes of spices and by under wood. It associates suppleness, velvety, elegance and structure. The ROSE: with a strong color, is resulting from a bleeding from syrah, grenache and cinsault with, sometimes, a point of mourvèdre. It is a wine of nature, tasty, powerful and fond of delicacies, fringant and spiced, with the red fruit aromas. He is drunk very fresh, in the shade. The WHITE: resulting from a direct pressing from white Bourboulenc, Ugni white, and grenache which confers a great freshness, notes of white flowers, and apricot, fruit and a beautiful persistence in mouth to him. The passage was of oak of a small portion brings roundness associated to him with vanilla notes. Our ROSE: LA VIE EN ROSE, a vintage whose name corresponds well to aromatic qualities of this rosy: délicieusement rétros like English candies with raspberry and currant that one suçote by listening to the melodies of Piaf. Powerful and length in mouth, like the vibrating voice of the singer. Acidulated Gouleyant and, the such gouaille of the suburbs of the Parigotte. Charm and the flattering side of the cherishing intonations of Edith, this cordial rosé gives desire of chantonner: “… je vois la vie en rose….et ça m ' fait quelque chose. Il est entré dans mon coeur une part de bonheur, dont je connais la cause….”
The emotion is with return. Simple, true.
