Wine Details

Half the grapes were destemmed without crushing, and fermented for 10 days with natural yeasts. After pressing, the juice was transferred straight into old French oak barrels (ranging from 5 to 20 years old), where it completed fermentation and matured for 9 months. Bottled without filtration, a light sediment may be present.

Tasting Notes and Food Pairings

Pale ruby in colour, this wine is vibrant and fresh, with aromas of raspberry, cherry and plum. This is a light-bodied and red berried fruity wine, balanced by gentle tannins and a crisp acidity. With just 11% alcohol, it's an easy-drinking style that shines on a summer’s day, though it will develop further complexity with a year or two of cellaring. Pair with: grilled duck, mushroom dishes, or a summer picnic of charcuterie and cheeses.
