Vieilles Vignes Red 2019

Côtes du Rhône

 

Definitely a wine of character that brings together roundness and silkiness. This generous Côtes-du-Rhône “old vine” is the expression of authentic terroirs where the grapes grow under the southern sunshine. It is aged in concrete vats for 6 to 9 months.

An very expressive, rich and complex red wine with a nose of stewed red fruits and spicy notes. Its mouth is fruity, well-structured but supple with a delicate peppery finish.

A generous and fruity Cotes du Rhone, excellent with grilled or roasted meats, lamb, Mediterranean, Oriental and Asian cuisines.
