Vintage 2021
This vintage gave us a fine, deep and very fresh red wine.
Vineyard
This wine comes from a vineyard called “Le Ratanaud” composed of blue clay. These hillsides, located between 330 and 350m of altitude have a south exposition, which bring freshness and perfect maturity to the wine.
Winemaking
The grapes are hand-picked and sorted at the vineyard. They are fully destemmed then fermented in concrete tanks, each grape separately. Vatting time is between 28 to 35 days with daily grape-treading and pumping-over. Ageing is then in concrete tanks for fifteen months.
Tasting notes
Intense red colour. Pleasant nose of raspberry liquor and wild pepper. The palate is full and smooth, with cherry and licorice stick aromas.
Food pairing
Grilled eggplant and feta cheese – Matured prime rib – Lamb shoulder and garlic cream – Auvergne blue cheese – Red wine strawberries.
