IGP Aude Hauterive|Red wine

3.1/5 (11 customers)

This cuvée of old Syrah vines is a veritable bath of sunshine. Ripe black fruit aromas and smoky notes dance in the glass. On the palate, there's fruitiness and a silky texture spiced with lovely acidity. The finish is subtly mineral and the length flattering. A fine discovery!

About the domain :

North-west of Lézignan-Corbières, a vast estate (180 ha) focused on exports, acquired in 1987 by Anne-Marie and Guilhem Durand. A first in Languedoc-Roussillon. In 2015, it was the first in Languedoc to pass into the hands of a Chinese group, the importer BHC International Wine Assets Management. Close to the Minervois region, the vineyard is set on an ancient terrace of the Aude, rich in rolled pebbles.
