Corbières

EU organic

Producer: Domaine la Cendrillon
Colour: Red
Last seen vintage: 2020
Grape varieties: Grenache, Mourvèdre, Syrah
Origin: AOC Corbières, Languedoc / Corbières, France

The Syrah comes from Quaternary alluvial terraces near Lézignan, with red clay and calcareous rounded pebbles; the Mourvèdre grows on west-facing slopes of the Pech on clay-limestone sandy soils. After hand-harvesting and sorting, a slow, gentle fermentation follows, including around 15 days of warm skin maceration, as well as natural malolactic fermentation. The wine is aged for 24 months in concrete tanks. It shows strawberry, raspberry, cassis and dark berries, with a full, juicy character and pronounced, well-integrated tannins.
