Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Dark purple with ruby color. An expressive and rich nose of berries, spices and guarrigue. A fresh wine with generous delicate tannins and a finale of fruit and long lasting finish. A good wine for mid-term cellaring.

55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Grenache, 15% Merlot, 5% Cinsault.

    Toasty, with charred mesquite, mulled plum and blackberry fruit flavors, followed by a lingering, fig paste- and graphite-tinged finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Merlot and Cinsault. Drink now. Tasted twice, with consistent notes.

Chateau de la Selve, France
Chateau de la Selve Winery Image
The Chateau de la Selve was a castle on the frontier of the Empire and then of the Kingdom of France. It then became the hunting lodge of the famous Dukes de Joyeuse, before being transformed into a farm after a few centuries. Built during the 13th century, it has the typical architecture of many of the castles of the Bas-Vivarais. Located on the banks of the Chassezac, the main Ardèche's tributary, it benefits from a unique and protected environment.

In 1990, this magnificent house became the property of Jean-Régis and Magdeleine Chazallon. The Chateau thus became a family abode. Wine is grown with respect for the environment and the goal of letting the soil express itself. In this perspective, they are always looking for better areas for vines to grow and have adopted biodynamic principals.

Setting the standards for red wine production worldwide, France holds rank as the source of the world’s most popular red grape varieties. Famous for their elegance, grace and longevity, the red wines of France come in a variety of styles.

Burgundy claims some of the most desirable vineyard real estate on the planet and remains a source of the world’s most coveted Pinot noir. A powerhouse producer of red wines based on Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, Bordeaux sits on France’s western side, separated from the Atlantic Ocean by a coastal pine forest. The region’s mild, maritime climate and gravel-heavy soils are perfect for the production of highly structured, cellar-worthy red wines. In the south, the long and narrow Rhône River Valley produces full-bodied, flavorful reds. Syrah makes its home in the Northern Rhône where a continental climate and steep hillside vineyards create some of the best in the world. Southern Rhône’s Grenache-based blends easily charm most any wine enthusiast. For those after a more delicate red, the Loire Valley’s Cabernet Franc maintains a loyal line of followers.
