Wine:

The 2021 red Côtes-du-Rhône Réserve is intense, brimming with lovely dark fruit, particularly blackberry, and well-developed tannic structure. It's a very dense wine with a very appealing mid-palate, still young but with real potential. A fine achievement highlighted by aromas of violet, it's a high-caliber wine that can be enjoyed in its youth but will continue to improve over the next two years. Pair it with red meats, like a hearty stew, for example.

Vinification:

Harvested by hand. Berries are sorted and destemmed. Fermentation in 150- and 190-hl temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats. Aged in wooden and stainless steel vats for 1 year.

Color:

Intense, brilliant ruby red.

Nose:

Powerful, with a broad aromatic palette of ripe black fruits underscored by spicy notes, notably Sichuan pepper.

Palate:

Dense and fruity, this cuvée delivers notes of black fruits and blackberries on a pleasant, delicate mid-palate. A delicate finish with floral violet accents.

Temperature:

Serve between 14 and 16°C.

Food and wine pairing:

Daube de boeuf à la provençale, hamburger with pulled pork, traditional lamb moussaka.

Cellar aging:

From now until 2027
