At the cellar
After pressing, this fine red wine undergoes its secondary fermentation in the barrel, where it matures for a further 15 to 18 months with pumping over of the lees prior to bottling.
Notes
Intense colour with violet hues. This is a fruity, fleshy and balanced wine with subtle peppery notes. After a few years it becomes more rounded and smooth to reveal a charming wine with complexity and plenty of length.
Pairing
- Red meat, either grilled, roasted or served in a sauce
- White meat such as braised veal chop
- Feathered game
- Platter of local cheese
Did you know ?
Although this is a fertile grape variety known for its fruity style, it requires lots of care and attention as it is prone to diseases. It thrives on terroirs such as that in Dézaley, which lends it plenty of complexity.
