Vert de Vin
“Simply perfect and already irresistible!”
“The nose is beautifully developed, aromatic, and complex, with floral and spicy notes. It features hints of violet and nutmeg, along with subtle notes of small wild blackberries, crushed blueberries, a touch of strawberry, green pepper, and a subtle, almost olive-like note. The palate is fruity, balanced, and offers juiciness, smoothness, lovely freshness, vibrancy, minerality, and a crystalline quality. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of pulpy blackberry and creamy little black berries combined with hints of crushed raspberry, hints of pulpy cherry, blueberry, and licorice stick, as well as subtle hints of saltiness, black olive, and toast. Good length. Nice vibrancy on the fairly ripe red fruits. The tannins are savory and velvety.” Vert de vin 2025

About the wine:
With a fairly traditional style, the 2023 Saint-Chinian Mouleyres combines depth and richness. A blend of Syrah (60%), Mourvèdre (30%), and Grenache Noir (10%), aged for 14 months in 500-liter demi-muids, it offers aromas of black fruit, notes of orange peel, arbutus, mocha, and dark chocolate, with a woody and toasty touch from the aging process. The palate is carried by fine yet firm tannins, lovely freshness, and a surprisingly juicy finish. Still young, it can easily be cellared for a few more years, but it is best to decant it upon opening to soften it and bring out its full charm. Best enjoyed between 2025 and 2032.

About the wine:
The nose is beautifully developed, aromatic, and offers complexity, floral notes, and hints of spice. There are notes of violet, nutmeg, and, more subtly, small wild black berries combined with hints of crushed blueberry, as well as a touch of strawberry, green pepper, and a subtle, almost olive-like note. The palate is fruity, balanced, and offers juiciness, smoothness, lovely freshness, vibrancy, minerality, and a crystalline quality. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of plump blackberry and creamy little black berries combined with hints of crushed raspberry, hints of plump cherry, blueberry, licorice root, as well as subtle hints of saltiness, black olive, and toast. Good length. Nice vibrancy from the fairly ripe red fruits. The tannins are savory and velvety.
