Today the estate covers 26 hectares, including a new plot of 2.5 hectares of the finest land in Rasteau - pure ‘Argile bleue’ with 60-year-old vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll the grapes are hand picked at Domaine la Soumade and yields are particularly low for the region - around 40 hectolitres per hectare for his Côtes du Rhône, 35 hectolitres per hectare the Villages and much less for his super cuvées. The blends are mainly Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre with the proportions varying a little with each vintage. Wines are matured in cement tanks for one year before spending 6 months in a variety of oak: foudres, demi-muids and barriques. The wines are fined with egg whites but receive no filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eDOMAINE LA SOUMADE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca title=\"The official website of Domaine la Soumade in Rasteau\" href=\"http:\/\/www.domainelasoumade.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/files\/desktop_icon_cd1f9a91-a06b-4665-880d-cc47c0dde6d7_480x480.jpg?v=1588261941\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca title=\"Like Domaine la Soumade on Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Soumade.Fred84110\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/files\/facebook_icon_d3f13554-5a1f-49e3-a487-0da023dfd02d_480x480.jpg?v=1588261424\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/files\/facebook_icon_d3f13554-5a1f-49e3-a487-0da023dfd02d_480x480.jpg?v=1588261424\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca title=\"Follow Domaine la Soumade on Instagram\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/domaine_la_soumade\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/files\/instagram_icon_07bcf872-b0f0-428b-b788-b56bac71ff21_480x480.jpg?v=1588261424\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/files\/instagram_icon_07bcf872-b0f0-428b-b788-b56bac71ff21_480x480.jpg?v=1588261424\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"domaine-la-soumade-cotes-du-rhone","title":"Domaine la Soumade Côtes du Rhône 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Domaine la Soumade Côtes du Rhône is a red wine blend of Grenache (80%) and Syrah (20%). The domaine practice agriculture “raisonée” in all of their vineyards, only treating the vines where absolutely necessary, in order to maximise the terroir. Organic compost is applied when soil deficiencies are revealed, following analysis of the vines. When climatic conditions dictate they use organically permitted treatments (sulphur and copper) to protect the vines from mildew. The domaine has partnered with consultant Stéphane Derenoncourt and together they have fine tuned the style of wines made here, leading them in softer, smoother, spicier and more complex directions.[#intro]A high quality Côtes du Rhône from the Domaine la Soumade stable...[\/intro]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine la Soumade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39487600787523,"sku":"A22SOUMADECDR-1","price":16.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/products\/CDRBottle.jpg?v=1629028544"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/collections\/Collection_Image_db149182-c755-40b1-833d-b3091b1c7083.jpg?v=1628755431","url":"https:\/\/hic.wine\/collections\/domaine-la-soumade-rasteau\/domaine-la-soumade.oembed","provider":"Hic!","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
