Grape varieties

100% Grenache

Terroir

Clay-limestone soil with a clay dominance, terraced, on old bush vines.

Vinification

Low-temperature fermentation and gentle extraction, followed by 9 months' ageing in three-wine American oak barrels, in the exceptional conditions of the keep of the Château Comtal, at constant temperature and humidity.

Tasting

To be opened at least 4 hours before tasting. This wine needs time to express itself fully. Its notes of black fruits and red fruits offer remarkable length, with a body and structure that are highly complex for a single-varietal wine. Its ageing in barrels brings both very supple tannins, roundness and silkiness, along with notes of coconut and flambéed banana, while allowing the typical character of Grenache to express itself fully.

Food & wine pairings

A wine that pairs divinely with meats in sauce, particularly veal and lamb, but above all rabbit. It also goes wonderfully with potatoes from the Pays de Sault. This Grenache pairs perfectly with chocolate desserts and gingerbread too.
