This wine draws its strength and balance from the heart of the 3rd terrace of the River Lot, an exceptional terroir formed during the Mindel glaciation.
Les Galets d'Olt represents 500,000 years of history in a bottle !
Its unique terroir, composed of sand-clay soil with sun-baked pebbles, enables the best possible ripening for the grapes that reveal their aromas so typical of Malbec: plum, blackberry and blueberry.
From the 3rd terrace of the River Lot, growing on extremely old soil: 500,000 years Les Galets d’Olt owes its name to the terroir where on the top there are “galets” or pebbles created by the erosion of elements. A few centimetres below we reach the sand-clay level with scattered pebbles and the lower we go, the more clay is present. A characteristic that our teams cultivate enthusiastically.
A purple colour with violet tints. The bouquet is typical with aromas of plum, blackberry and blueberry. The palate is straightforward and soft initially. This is a full-bodied wine enveloped by silky tannins.
