Description
The 100% Cinsault cuvée from Domaine Giroflet is a hidden gem of the Languedoc. Few winemakers specialise exclusively in this grape variety, which here produces a fruity, silky and delicate red wine. We love the deep aromas of crushed strawberries, carried by a supple and light palate. All this is enhanced by lovely spicy notes on the finish. An impeccable value for money!
The wine in detail:
- Vines planted on Villafranchian terraces facing south on a hillside
- Grapes harvested by hand at peak ripeness in small crates.
- Certified organic farming: no herbicides or synthetic pesticides
- Vinification over two weeks, with the only intervention being punching down to extract the substance as gently as possible
- Aged for 6 months in stainless steel vats before early bottling in the spring
