history
Cave de Tain is a family-driven cooperative with a legacy of winegrowing that spans four generations. Located at the base of the Hermitage hill, they cultivate 22 hectares alongside additional contributions from member winegrowers, focusing exclusively on wines from their own grapes. In 2014, they invested in advanced technology to enhance wine quality across all appellations, paving the way for innovations such as organic and sulfite-free wines. Committed to sustainability, Cave de Tain also fosters a new generation of winemakers who view themselves as active contributors to the winery’s mission. To taste their wines is to experience this dedication firsthand.
Vineyard
Situated in the northern part and on the left bank of the Cotes du Rhone area. Soil: Granitic in the north, glaciofluvial and rounded pebbles or loess in the south of the appellation. Climate: Continental with a Mediterranean influence.
Winemaking
Careful selection of the harvest, depending upon its origin and maturity. All grapes are destemmed. Cold maceration before fermentation to bring out the fruit and alcoholic fermentation in tank. Vatting for a period of 12 to 15 days, including the gentle extraction of the fruit’s tannins, through the use of cap punching and pumping over. Ageing in vats.
