Information on the history of the wine

Each time Pascale Jourdan and Christian Ott passed the solitary tree at the entrance to the winery, they were captivated by this magnificent oak tree. The presence of this centuries-old tree on such sandy soil promised the unique quality of a terroir. 20 years later, they acquired this fascinating site to establish their winery. Pascale and Christian want to break free from conventions. Passionate winemakers for 25 years, they create unique and distinctive wines that thrive on an exceptional terroir. At Domaine Alône, they are now writing their own story. There, in complete freedom, they produce wines derived from natural viticulture. A small river, the Lône, flows alongside the winery. When they were looking for a name for the wine, they immediately thought of a play on words and added an “a” to the river’s name: Alône—the English word for “alone”—wonderfully illustrated their approach. Alône is also a reference to their great-grandfather, who, alone and completely unknown, planted his vineyard in the South of France in 1896.

Vineyard Details

Each vineyard is treated individually, with pruning that respects sap flow, foliar treatments based on trace elements, and fertilizers developed after precise soil analyses. The Cinsault, Grenache, and Syrah grapes are harvested by hand and chilled to prevent oxidation. The grape varieties are divided as follows: 68% Grenache, 25% Cinsault, 7% Syrah. The whole bunches are pressed, and the juice is macerated to extract colour and aromas. Vinification then takes place plot by plot using indigenous yeasts. The wines are aged on the fine lees in stainless steel tanks, ceramic, and porcelain spheres, which bring out the purity of the fruit.

Colour

Delicate apricot with silvery highlights towards the rim.

Nose

The 2021 Alône Rosé has a subtle aroma of peach, bright red fruits, citrus fruits, and honeydew melon. Subtle floral notes and a hint of anise are also present.

Palate

On the palate, it is juicy and powerful, its fine fruit sweetness paired with zesty spice and invigorating acidity. The long finish is characterized by a salty note. The dishes that accompany this special wine are welcome to reflect the intensity of Provence.
