Description

Laurence "Yoyo" Manya-Krief has created a real fruit bomb with La Vierge Rouge, in collaboration with Jean-François Nicq. A natural red wine made from very old vines situated at the foot of the Albères mountains. 70% Grenache Gris, 20% Grenache Noir, 10% Grenache Blanc. It’s incredibly drinkable, with just the right depth: totally addictive!
