A fine example of a Minervois wine with a deep garnet color, very expressive and intense on the nose, exuding aromas of ripe fruit tempered by a slight, very pleasant woody touch. It is round and powerful on the palate, with a velvety structure and great elegance. It will be wonderful with a hare stew!

About the estate:
All that remains of the medieval fortress of the lords of Oupia are sections of wall, remnants of the enclosure, and a tower. In 1860, Romain Iché bought the castle, which passed to his grandson André in 1970. André undertook to renovate the estate and the cellar, turning the property into a benchmark for the Minervois appellation. He passed away in 2007, leaving his life's work to his daughter Marie-Pierre.
