BOUT THIS WINE
La Tourtine is crafted from a unique parcel within Domaine Tempier’s holdings, showcasing a blend primarily of Mourvèdre, supported by Grenache and Cinsault. The vineyard sits on terraced limestone soils, where the vines enjoy warm southern exposure that enhances the depth and ripeness of the fruit. The 2022 vintage was vinified with great care, emphasizing a natural approach that preserves the distinctive, bold character of Mourvèdre while allowing the terroir’s minerality to shine.
