Clot De L'Origine - France
Clot De L'Origine – France
Located at Maury, Roussillon,South-west of France, belongs to les Pyrénées, close to Mediterranean Sea, and next to Spain.
Winery: I set my heart on building a winery from scratch, making wine that tasted great to me for the fans, purists and individuals in this world looking for a wine with character and its own special something. I left Bandol and hung my hat in Maury to make dry 'natural' wines with no technological trickery.
Winery has 10 ha, in which 6.5 ha is red grape while 3.5 ha white grape.
Total yield of winery is over 40,000 bottles, with over 70% white wines.
Vineyard
Initially I sought out north-facing old vine blocks with local grape varieties, planted on a selection of diverse soils (schist, limestone, gneiss). Today I have 17 different blocks, containing several white and red grape varieties, and planted on multicolored schist soils ranging from reddish brown through shades of silvery gray to slate.
These blocks are situated in 4 communes within roughly a 25 km of the winery :
• Calce (grenache blanc)
• Estagel (carignan, grenache noir, syrah and muscat petit grains)
• Maury (grenache blanc, gris and noir)
• Caudiès (syrah, merlot, maccabeu)
The entire vineyard is worked manually (weeding, hoeing, staking, tying down, spraying, dis-budding, harvesting). When the slope is too steep (common to Estagel) we use horse to cultivate the soil; elsewhere a caterpillar tractor (90 cm wide) takes over where possible.
Since the very beginning my vineyard has been organically farmed. Aside from the sulphur used to prevent disease, natural plant infusions are sprayed on the vines to increase their natural defenses against drought, heat, etc.
We've been certified as Agriculture Biologique (AB) since 2009 and follow the culture of Biodynamic agriculture.
Winery Owner Mr. Marc Barriot said “My goal is not to make standard, boring wines. I prefer to use as little sulphur as possible (depending on the year) to maintain the integrity of the grapes (bringing out the finesse and purity of fruit), letting nature choose the flavor of the wine.
Wine is always a living product, and should remain so ...”
Our winery offers the unexpected, the exceptional, the undiscovered, the perfect, the graceful and the elegant. Our wines will transport you to a new world of flavors and aromas ...
