Origin

Produced in the Graves appellation, located in the Bordeaux wine region of France, known for its gravelly soils and high-quality red and white wines.

Variety

This red blend typically includes classic Bordeaux grape varieties such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve fruit character. The wine is aged in oak barrels, which adds complexity and structure.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Deep ruby red color.
  • Aroma: Intense aromas of ripe red fruits, such as black cherry and plum, complemented by subtle notes of vanilla and spice from oak aging.
  • Palate: Well-balanced with smooth tannins, a medium to full body, and a lingering finish with hints of dark berries and a touch of earthiness.

Food pairings

  • Grilled or roasted red meats such as beef or lamb.
  • Game dishes including venison or duck.
  • Rich stews and casseroles.
  • Mature cheeses like Comté or aged Gouda.
