Saveurs d'autrefois Rouge

Soil type

Grapes for this wine come from a selection of the finest Roussillon vineyards grown on clay-limestone, claygravel and granite sand soils.

Varietal range

Grenache, Syrah

Wine making

Selected grapes are harvested in the morning to retain freshness. They are drained and delicately pressed in an oxygen-free environment. The must then undergoes cold static settling followed by alcoholic fermentation at low temperatures.

Ageing

In tanks. Bottling takes place the year after the harvest to preserve bouquet.

Tasting notes

Storage capacity

This wine should be drunk young for full aromatic enjoyment

Food paring

This light red wine makes the perfect partner for everyday meals, cold meats, pizzas, pasta Bolognese and red meats.

Serving temperature
