The Coteau de Cévins was first planted by the Romans, then abandoned for centuries, left to the mountain, until in the late 1990s a small group set out to bring it back. Plot by plot, they rented hundreds of tiny parcels from local villagers, rebuilt the ancient terraces and dry-stone walls by hand, and replanted the bare rock. They named the estate for the local slate, ardoise, the same stone that roofs the famous Grande Chartreuse monastery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eToday Domaine des Ardoisières is one of the most sought-after names in France, run by Brice Omont, farmed biodynamically, the near-vertical vines still worked by horse. Améthyste is its top red, grown on that vertiginous Cévins slope from two rare Alpine grapes: Persan, which gives finesse and silk, and Mondeuse, which brings structure and spice. The result is a mountain red unlike anything else, all blueberry, cracked pepper, and wild herbs, powerful yet light on its feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThere is very little of it, and almost none reaches the US. Wines from a place like this don't come around often.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine des Ardoisieres","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49278331552001,"sku":"2774223","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0783\/8085\/9649\/files\/2774223.png?v=1781914045","url":"https:\/\/winekey.com\/products\/2016-domaine-des-ardoisieres-cuvee-amethyste-igp-allobroges-france-750ml","provider":"WineKey","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
