DESCRIPTION
The year 1650 marks the apogee of the maritime trade of wine initiated by the Greeks who from antiquity made the port of Narbonne, protected by the island of the Clape massif, a Mecca for the culture of the vine.
A slow ripening and late harvests, from the end of September to mid-October, are the secrets to ripe, healthy and concentrated grapes. This also favours the extraction of colour and aromas during the fermentation and maceration.
The Syrah, Carignan and Mourvèdre are handpicked and transported to the winery. The grapes are destemmed and then put into stainless steel tanks for macerations. The wines are then racked and put into barrels.
Tasting notes
The proximity of the sea gives this wine a nice aromatic freshness.
The colour is golden with brilliant reflections.
On the nose, the wine reveals floral and ripe fruit aromas such as apricot and white peach.
Elegant and well-balanced, this wine is characterized by a beautiful minerality and a pleasant and refreshing acidity.
Ideal at 18 °C with a rack of lamb, roast poultry or creamy cheeses.
