A traditional blend from the terroirs of Minervois, this wine comes from plots planted on silty clay soils with an optimal exposure.

The vines benefit from more than 300 days of sunshine per year and a gentle maritime influence that shapes the wine’s Mediterranean character.

The AOP Minervois designation guarantees terroir authenticity and respect for Languedoc winemaking traditions. This terroir, with its complex influences, produces wines with a strong personality, balancing power and finesse.

Winemaking

Mechanical harvesting is carried out at optimal ripeness. Traditional low-temperature vinification for the Grenache allows for a pure fruity expression of the grape variety. The two grape varieties are vinified separately and then blended at bottling to create a harmonious symbiosis. Ageing in stainless steel tanks preserves freshness and natural liveliness.

Tasting

Color: Bright purple, intense and lively
Nose: Expressive aromas of wild berries (cherry, blackberry), with characteristic Mediterranean garrigue notes
Palate: Fresh on the attack, balanced by a supple structure, with a persistent finish and subtle spicy notes

Food pairings

Best enjoyed lightly chilled as an aperitif or with mixed salads, white meat, Mediterranean charcuterie, mild cheeses, light Mediterranean dishes, or tender red meats.

Ageing:
5 years
Serving temperature:
15-17 °c
