This is from an old plot of Merlot in the southern Ardèche where limestone soils lend this sometimes flabby-tasting grape an unusual energy and zip, so much so that we think this would do well with a light chill.
From the picturesque town of Alba-la-Romaine in the Ardèche, Sylvain Bock produces some of our favourite wines in the region. His vineyards encompass a number of soil types and are planted with a wide variety of grapes, producing wines that really got our attention with their purity and grace.
