“‘Velue’ is the old name for Velm, moreover the name of the old willow trees which are growing near the river. Biodynamic worked vineyards – wines fermented
spontaneously with natural yeast in stainless steel tanks – matured on the fine lees – fruit forward style.” – Halle Aux Vins
“With a darker ruby colour striking a great visual, the nose invites you to stewed red fruits and blackcurrant juice. Add ripe raspberries and roasted rhubarb, there is a splash of lime that lifts all the berry aromas. The palate reflects these notes with sour cherries, making this more savoury than anticipated from the nose. It evolves nicely and almost tastes similar to a lighter Grenache with savouriness in a very drinkable package with persistence of flavour and offering great value! This will suit well on a warmer winter night or a cooler summer day, with enough body and hints of minerality from vines planted on loess and quartz rich sand. A méli-mélo of grenache and gamay effectively, with fruit and a mineral component, some structure and deliciously layered. 93pts.”
