Fitou | Rouge | 2023

This wine is a harmonious blend of Carignan and Syrah, sourced from vines that are over 50 and 30 years old, respectively. Grown on schist soils, the grapes are harvested by hand, ensuring meticulous selection. The blending of the two grape varieties before fermentation results in a wine that is both supple and structured, fermented and then aged in tanks to preserve all its freshness and character. A revelation for lovers of fine wines.

Our Review of the Cuvée

The nose of this wine immediately envelops you with aromas of black fruit cream, subtly accented by licorice and juniper, and a refreshing hint of menthol and eucalyptus. On the palate, it reveals remarkable roundness and depth, with a velvety texture and aromatic richness that shifts between candied and balsamic notes. The finish stands out for its firmness and length, with a chalky mouthfeel that gently melts into sap-like and balsamic nuances, offering a truly unforgettable sensory symphony.
