Ripe, boozy, dark fruits with a peppery lift.
About The Makers:
For the last 15 years, winemaker Xavier Vignon has become internationally known for being the winemaker of several of the best domains in the Rhône. Known as a 'master blender', he creates and blends Rhône wines with different vintages and appellations from around the Languedoc. Xavier sources fruit from vineyards which are only sustainably managed, producing fruit of the highest quality. These wines are non-vintage, made from the highest quality fruit sourced from across the region and vinified in 2007, 2009 and 2010, some of the best vintages in Southern France.
Clara, Our Sommelier, Says...
Dishes out plenty of black raspberry, raspberry, crushed flowers and ample minerality on the nose. This is followed by a medium to full-bodied wine that has beautiful concentration, a layered, balanced feel and ample length.
We Say...
Dark, rich, boozy fruits supported with plenty of tannic structure can handle a cheese with some real punch to it; we recommend I Am Nut Okay's fabulous C'e Dairy, or if you're bold enough: Minerthreat.
