Question 1

What is L'Alezan (Patricia et Remi Bonneton) Métisse?

Accepted Answer

Patricia and Rémi Bonneton started Domaine de l'Alezan in 2012 in northern Ardèche, after Rémi's earlier career as a horse-traction provider gave him intimate knowledge of the vineyards he eventually came to own. The estate now runs around 2.5 hectares organically, on three distinct terroirs (loess and granite for Marsanne-Roussanne, granite for Syrah, clay-granite for the other parcels). Métisse ('Mixed-blood') is a multi-grape estate red built around the Bonnetons' own holdings. Whole-bunch maceration, partial hand-crushing, hand-stirring of the tank to homogenize temperature, native-yeast fermentation, no chemical additives, no added sulphur, no fining or filtration. 13.5% alcohol. A Northern Rhône natural red for accounts that want a producer story (animal traction, organic, uncompromising cellar) plus genuine drinkability.
