Grand Boise Auro red 2023
$ 56.00 incl. GST
Description
50% Grenache, 40% Cinsault and 10% Syrah, fermented in concrete eggs and aged in concrete tanks. Côtes de Provence.
Aromas of purple flowers, lavender, garrigue (though far less than in typical Provence reds), olive tapenade.
The palate has plenty of fruit presence – blackberry, black plums, black cherries, squeaky clean, with fine, ripe and fresh tannins giving just enough depth to balance an easy-drinking feel with something more serious. Shares a similarly playful, mid-weight vibe with a Loire Cab Franc, contemplative or guzzlable depending on mood.

Château Grand Boise / Provence Sainte-Victoire
A Fastidious Operation On All Levels – A Jewel Estate From An Exciting Part Of Provence
With our eye on this producer for some time, we are delighted to have finally been able to secure an allocation of these amazing wines. With first recorded history of winegrowing here in 1610, the 500 hectare property comprises 40 hectares of some 77 plots of organically grown vines (certified), over marble, limestone and red clay soils, between 300 – 600 metres altitude, making this estate the highest in Southern Provence. The diversity here of soil and aspect/altitude gives enormous scope for this estate to blend and craft complex and detailed wines, assisted by a state of the art winery replete with concrete egg fermenters.
Sainte-Victoire is a jaw-droppingly beautiful part of Provence and raises some of the region’s most distinctive wines due to its high limestone content in its soils, and the sun reflection from Mont Sainte Victoire. Grand Boise are a leading producer often used by the Provence Wine Council as a benchmark of this appellation’s style. Rosé production at this estate is 50%, bucking the region’s norm of 90%+ at many addresses.
