Tasting note Bon Remede Les Vignes Rousses
Full, powerful red wine from the southern French Ventoux. Made from carignan, grenache and syrah from over 50 year old vines and matured in French oak barrels. Ideal with rich (meat) dishes.
Description
Mont Ventoux is certainly one of the most famous high mountains in France, thanks in part to epic cycling stages in the Tour de France. However, the 2000 meter high mountain has also given its name to the surrounding wine region. A very small amount of white is made, but it is an excellent region for red wine and to a lesser extent rosé.
Domaine du Bon Remède is located at the foot of the mountain, in the village of Mazan. Frédéric and Lucile Delay represent the third generation of the family business. Together they cultivate 28 hectares of vineyards. The majority of the sticks are over 50 years old. This gives the wines a nice concentration of flavor.
This certainly also applies to Les Vignes Rousses, one of the domain's more luxurious wines. This powerful, spicy red rhône is made from carignan and grenache noir. The carignan also comes from the oldest plots that supply superior quality grapes. For extra roundness, the Vignes Rousses matures for another 18 months in French oak.
Les Vignes Rousses, so called because the leaves of the Carignan vines turn red in autumn, is a rich, generous wine. It is bursting with sultry, ripe fruit, supplemented with spices and cocoa. The wood maturation gives something toast and vanilla in smell and taste. This is an impressive wine to pair with hearty food or by the fireplace.
