Price: $175.00
Didier Barral is a pioneering biodynamic winegrower working in Faugeres as the 13th generation of his family to helm the property named for his grandfather Leon Barral. Beginning in 1993, Dider retooled the estate inorder to focus on estate bottling his production and began develop the biodynamic regimen he employs today. Nearly 3 decades later his wines are some of the most thrilling in all of the Languedoc-Roussillon, admirably transmitting the sauvage terroir of the south of France into elegant wines that are in a category of their own. Valiniere represents the apogee of Didier's production. It is 80% Mourvedre with 20% Syrah from a north facing parcel fermented in cement and aged for just over 2 years in barrel (10% new wood, on average).
