Le Sang des Seigneurs
In the Middle Ages Occitania (the actual southern half of France) is led by noble lords who share their political power. But Occitania is united by a common culture and a common language.
Each variety is harvested and vinified separately. The berries are harvested at full ripeness and the fermentation is made under temperature control conditions in stainless vats for two weeks with daily pumping over. The juices are separately aged 3 month before blending. The wine is then aged minimum 12 month before bottling.
A pleasure wine to enjoy in its youth with beef BBQ, Mediterranean and Asian food, matured cheese, or dark chocolate.
