no added sulfur
Made entirely from old Cinsault vines, this red wine—with no added sulfur—features a concentrated nose of red fruits with notes of blackcurrant, raspberry, cherry, and kirsch-soaked morello cherry. It offers a smooth, rich, well-structured, and supple palate. The aromas found on the nose carry through, with a slightly spicy finish. It pairs perfectly with Mediterranean cuisine...

About the estate:

Guy Vanlancker, a former elementary school teacher from Wallonia, found himself, by a twist of fate, on the high hillsides of Calamiac in 1981, where he began planting vines on what were then neglected plots of land. He patiently developed the estate, which covers 12 hectares and is in the process of converting to organic farming, on the hillsides of La Livinière. His son Ambroise took over the property in 2021.
