Bila-Haut R.I. 2010 6x75cl

• 75cl bottle

Complex and intense on the nose, graphite with notes of ink, raspberry and cistus flower. On the palate it is delicate, but grows denser without aggressiveness, lovely light tannins. It has a firm long lingering finish, superb violet and white pepper olfactory after-taste.

Vineyards

Located in the L'esquerda district, an area in the department where the grapes are last to ripen, the vineyard parcel lies on a gentle, north-facing slope; very infertile, granite, ferrous soil, predominantly gravely on top.

Winemaking

The harvest is totally destalked then vinified in small concrete tanks. Gentle extraction is required: light pumping-over during 0 fermentation with 4 to 5 weeks total maceration.

Enjoy with:

• Grilled and Roasted Red Meats
• Pizza/Pasta
• Casseroles/Stews

Spiced wild boar shoulder or rich meat dishes.
