The altitude brings cool nights and a slow, drawn-out ripening on limestone-rich soils farmed organically, which is exactly what these southern varieties need if they are to keep their nerve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nose is layered and unusual, with white peach, quince and honeysuckle over almond, beeswax and a fine chalky note. The palate is broad and textured without any heaviness, the richness of Roussanne and Marsanne held in check by acidity and a distinct stony grip, closing long, dry and faintly floral.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChâteau des Tourettes was bought and completely reworked in 1997 by Maine and Jean-Marie Guffens, the couple behind Domaine Guffens-Heynen in the Mâconnais, who wanted to apply Burgundian thinking to an undervalued high-altitude Provençal terroir. The Tinus range, named for Jean-Marie's grandfather Martinus, began in 2016 when he grew tired of the grape variety restrictions imposed by the Luberon appellation and chose to bottle as Vin de France instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVintages may vary.
