2018 Château Puech-Haut Languedoc Argali rouge

Full red color. Lively fruit notes in the scent with ripe cherry, wild strawberry and plum supplemented with bay leaf. Wonderfully juicy, soft and smooth in taste with fresh acidity. Mild and slightly spicy in the finish.

Description

Are you a fan of the beautiful Prestige Rosé from Puech-Haut? Or do you fancy an intensely fruity and refreshing glass of red? Then the juicy, light-footed red Argali from this southern French top domain is also an absolute must! The wine is made from syrah, grenache and merlot, planted in the Hérault region. The vineyards are located at an altitude of 50-150 meters above sea level. This keeps the grapes fresh. The soils consist of lime and clay and are covered with the typical flat round stones (galets), which ensure perfect drainage. After the harvest, the grapes are fermented separately in stainless steel tanks and then blended. To preserve its aromatic, fruity character, the Argali does not come into contact with wooden barrels. Serve this very tempting and supple red wine preferably slightly chilled. Delicious to drink on its own, or in combination with charcuterie, fried chicken or creamy cheeses. The ideal red summer wine, but not to be sneezed at all year round.

Drink at
Delicious to drink on its own, preferably slightly cooled, or in combination with Mediterranean dishes such as Provencal ratatouille, seasoned lamb or roasted chicken from the oven.
