Description

LOCATION

The vineyard is located in the Minervois appellation, at the foot of the Montagne noire and the Saint Jean de Minervois plateau, in the little village of Agel, which lies within the “Parc naturel régional du Haut Languedoc”.

Vinification

Partially manual harvest on grapes at optimal maturity with direct sorting in the vineyard. Traditional fermentation in cement vats during 25 to 30 days. Ageing in vats during 8 months before bottling.

TASTING NOTES

Bright ruby red robe. Tears on the glass announce a round wine. Spicy nose, typical cherry of Grenache. Excellent balance with melted tannins (called grenus, hence the name of the cuv e), elegant and soft. It could have been called generous as the ripeness of the grapes gives this a certain finesse in mouth. A long and persistent liquorice finish.

GRAPE VARIETIES

Large majority of Grenache noir, Syrah
