As in cooking, we carefully select terroirs and grape varieties to best express the original flavors of each appellation in a fruity, expressive style with silky tannins. Each cuvée is enjoyable from the moment it is bottled. The final blending is carried out with Chefs Disciples d'Escoffier, so that each wine is associated with the world of gastronomy from the start.
This Roaix is made with extra special care. Fermentation takes place traditionally in stainless steel vats. The grapes are entirely destemmed. Maceration lasts 15 days. Our cellarmaster has created a wine with an expressive bouquet showing hints of red fruit. It takes on spicy overtones with age.
The vines that produce this wine essentially grow on light, sandy soil. However, grapes are also from slope vineyards containing river stones, red clay, and grey clay. This varied terroir produces well-structured wine of remarkable quality.
Tasting Notes: The nose has lovely red fruit and blackcurrant overtones. The wine is fresh and straightforward on the palate. There is a beautiful long aftertaste.
Pairing: It is delicious with red meats and delicatessen meats.
