Art Oratoire Pdf

[Randell Magtoto]

SinceAndr Alary in 1692, ten generations of grape growers from one to the next for over 300 years have worked on the same vineyard. Frdric and Franois Alary have taken over the farm in 1984 and work 25 hectares on the Saint Martin hillsides including the oratoire, built in the middle of the vineyard, which gave its name to the estate.

The vineyards of Oratoire St Martin are hand tended and managed organically with biodynamic preparations. The vineyards are regularly ploughed, with some plots by horse. This is a costly, time consuming and difficult practice that offers a range of benefits over using a tractor for the same purpose. Very low crops also play their part, with the Oratoire vineyards typically yielding less than 30hl/ht on average.

The wines of Oratoire St Martin offer remarkable value and should not be missed by those seeking authentic, old vine, full bodied reds at very fair prices. In Oratoire we offer you arguably the finest producer in Cairanne. If you accept the often heard claim that Cairanne is the supreme Village in the Ctes du Rhne, then you know we are offering something special.
