Description:
This well made red uses the Pineau d'Aunis grape and offers aromas of sour cherry, almond, and fennel. Bright and juicy yet also dense and creamy on the the palate, with rich black cherry fruit it has an invigoratingly tart fruit skin edge and chalky undertone. This wine practically explodes with concentrated bitter black cherry, plum, and herbal elixirs in a finish also marked by a continued counterpoint of creaminess with subtle chalk and fruit skin astringency. Le Rouge Gorge is a homage to this small bird which appears in spring and celebrates the Pineau d'Aunis grape variety. From the Coteaux du Loir appelation the fruit comes from vines aged 25 to 45 years. After the manual harvest the grapes spend one month in vat for alcoholic fermentation, breaking the cap, systematic blending of free run wine with press wine and natural malolactic fermentation in recent barrels. Finally the wine matures one year to 18 months. (6 x 75 cl)
