Ventoux Fees Coiffes Red 2023

The Ventoux Fées Coiffées Red is produced in the Ventoux appellation, located in the southern Rhône Valley, France. This region is known for its diverse terroir and Mediterranean climate, which contributes to the wine's character and quality.

This red wine is typically a blend of traditional Rhône grape varieties, predominantly Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, which are common in the Ventoux appellation and used by Marrenon for their red blends.

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected to ensure optimal ripeness. The wine undergoes fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and aromatic complexity. Aging is done partly in oak barrels to add structure and subtle oak nuances, followed by a period of bottle aging before release.

Ventoux Fées Coiffées Red displays a deep ruby color with vibrant purple hues. The nose reveals aromas of ripe red fruits such as cherry and raspberry, complemented by spicy notes of black pepper and subtle hints of herbs typical of the garrigue. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with smooth tannins, balanced acidity, and a persistent finish featuring fruity and spicy nuances.
