Tasting Notes:
This juicy wine has a beautiful cherry red colour. The nose shows an abundance of intense red berry fruit and hints of vanilla flavours. The palate is soft, full flavoured with a smooth easy drinking finish.
About the wine:
Produced from older vines, lessening yield but increasing complexity, acidity and quality.
Although this wine is made with an old traditional grape variety, the vinification was carried out in a modern style. The grapes are destemmed and crushed. The fermentation is carried out at controlled temperature, around 23°C . The ageing is carried out in tanks with a small amount of French oak staves for 3 months to add more complexity and roundness to the blend.
About the producer:
Mont Rocher wines are carefully chosen from small parcels of vines in the south of France with the emphasis on producing wines showing the true character of the terroir and style indigenous grape varieties.
Food match:
This Carignan would work perfectly with beef dishes, especially roast beef. Or a good rich casserole.
This wine is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
