"Thierry Boudinaud has acquired in-depth experience as a vintner in both hemispheres" Berry Bros & Rudd

65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot This intensely fruity, supple wine is made by the much celebrated Thierry Boudinaud, one of the most dynamic winemakers in Southern France. He creates wines with a distinctive, balanced style that are fruit orientated and elegant. Sourced from particularly dry sub-areas of Languedoc-Roussillon to enhance ripening.. Grapes are then de-stemmed and crushed, a cold maceration and cool fermentation promote purity of fruit and the wine is not fined in order to preserve the rich fruit flavours. Deep red in colour, with intense aromas of ripe red plum and dark cherry accompanied by hints of eucalypt, liquorice and exotic spice notes. Rich and smooth on the palate, with juicy dark fruit flavours, a hint of spice and a long, satisfying finish. This wine is ideal for drinking now but can be kept for up to 3 years.
