FEATURES
The 2022 Domaine de la Grange des Pères Rouge is a highly anticipated release, being the second vintage crafted by Bernard Vaillé after the passing of his brother, the legendary Laurent Vaillé. This wine continues the legacy of a quintessential cult wine from Southern France, renowned for its unique terroir of limestone and glacial scree. Expect a dark ruby color with aromas of snappy red cherry, smoked plum, leather, musk, five spice, crushed rock, and garrigue. On the palate, it's round and finessed, with red fruit seamlessly layered with savory spice, black tea, fresh herbs, and mineral complexity. It offers a weightless yet intense experience, with a refined structure and a spicy, long finish. This full-bodied red blend, typically composed of Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Counoise, promises both restraint and power, making it beautifully long-lived. 【Quintessential cult wine of Southern France known for simultaneous restraint and power】
