Domaine de l'Oratoire Saint-Martin
Most of the L'Oratoire Saint-Martin estate is located to the northeast of the commune of Cairanne, at an altitude of 200 meters on steep hills in an area commonly referred to as "la montagne". These are steep hillsides, requiring the use of caterpillar tractors on the steepest slopes. The terroir is very stony, with yellow clay on the surface and blue clay at depth, and a high percentage of active limestone.
Everything is carefully thought out to ensure a high-quality harvest and a deep respect for the terroir. The L'Oratoire Saint-Martin estate is certified organic, and the vines are worked without pesticides, chemical fertilizers or weedkillers. The soil is worked mechanically in its entirety on the old vines to bury organic compost (sheep manure) and encourage deep root development. The hand-picked grapes are first sorted by the pickers and then on a sorting table. Vinification takes place in open vats with punching down for the Cairanne and in closed vats with pumping over for the Côtes-du-Rhône. Maturation takes place in vats, demi-muids or foudres.

91/100 James Suckling
"This is a juicy wine with aromas of black fruits and spices. The Mourvèdre makes its mark on this cuvée. It's a fleshy, full-bodied wine, with sappy tannins. Less austerity than the Réserve des seigneurs". (Le Guide RVF 2022) From old, co-planted Mourvèdre and Grenache noirs vines.

93/100 RVF
Mostly Syrah, delivering ripe fruit tinged with spice, pepper and nutmeg. In a Mediterranean spirit, the palate carries us away to notes of roasting in a burst of greediness. Strength and tenderness characterize this charming cuvée. A sure bet!

93/100 RVF
"A Syrah full of freshness, peppery and spicy, but without the wild definition of the maquis. On the palate, it's both full and ample, pulpy and mellow, with a gourmet feel." (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2021 - RVF) A sure bet!
