2016 Domaine du Bon Remede Ventoux La Grange Delay

Tasting note La Grange Delay

Beautiful French red wine with a spicy and fruity aroma. The taste is powerful and balanced. Delicious with fragrant stews but also with lamb or beef from the grill.

Description

Many lovers of beautiful red rhine wine have discovered this recommendation from the Ventoux last year. Frédéric and Lucile Delay make a beautiful red wine from grapes from their best vineyards. Family business Domaine du Bon Remède competes with the not yet discovered La Grange Delay with more expensive already established names.

The wine is made from 70% grenache and 30% syrah from a high hillside plot in the village of Mazan near the Mont Ventoux. Frédéric bought this exceptionally well-situated vineyard in 2010 and thus values ​​his domain as one of the best in the region. The vines are on average over 45 years old and have a low yield of 35 hectoliters per hectare.

After a gentle bruising, the grapes fermented and soaked for almost five weeks, followed by a short ripening in small oak casks. The result is a powerful concentrated and spicy red wine with a good storage potential. This is a spectacular quality wine from the southern Rhône!
