Description

Les Frontons Flingueurs de La Colombière

is the ultimate wine for enjoyment and conviviality – best served in a magnum! A rich nose of red and black fruits, with hints of flowers and spices. On the palate, it is round and rich, supported by velvety tannins. Perfect for sipping whenever the mood takes you: I once knew a woman from Toulouse who used to drink it for breakfast. 

A little history

Just like the cult film that inspired this cuvée, the wine aims to be uninhibited and free from traditional conventions, a little rough around the edges (natural). Popular and accessible to all, yet full of character. A wine to drink and drink again! …
