Wine description
Gérard Bertrand reveals the story of the great terroirs of the South of France. In 1687, the prior of the parish of Fulcrand Cabanon travelled to Versailles to reveal the secret of his vermeil wine to the Sun King, who appreciated it greatly. It was thus that the wine of Cabrières enjoyed a glorious consecration, celebrated by the court poet Saint-Amant:
« Baille moy donc de ce vin vermeuil… Bref, c'est mon feu, mon sang, mon soleil … ».
Winemaking and ageing
The harvest is carried out by hand; the berries are destemmed and lightly crushed before being placed in vats for fermentation between 24 and 28°C. The winemaking is traditional with a maceration of 10 to 30 days. Each grape variety is vinified separately. Delicate pump-overs are carried out to extract the aromas, colour and tannins. The blending takes place after malolactic fermentation, just before being placed in barrels for 12 months of ageing.
Tasting note
The colour is a deep, dark cherry red. The nose reveals intense aromas of red and black fruits with spicy notes. The attack is full-bodied with rounded tannins. The finish is fruity with notes of roasting.
Serve at 18°C with lamb, beef and aged cheeses.
