Viticulture Sourced from small parcels of vines in the South of France and focus on intriguing varietals that are indigenous to that region. Winemaking Picked at their optimal ripeness, in mid September, the grapes are de-stemmed then crushed, finally they undergo a three weeks maceration in order to extract carefully all their quality. The extraction is made by pumping over during the first ten days of maceration. The wine gains its fruit complexity and juicy flavours with a small part being aged with oak staves. Tasting Note Deep in colour with ripe plum, blackberries and cherries on the nose. This is rich and rounded wine with perfectly balanced tannins. The long finish is smooth and succulent. Food Matching This wine cries out for bbq meat or strong cheeses.
