Domaine Saint Amant - Beaumes de Venise Grangeneuve 2015

A literally floral bouquet with notes of peony, rose, and jasmine. Harmonious, balanced, and understated. A refined and delicate wine.
A very interesting wine—powerful and vibrant, full of delicious ripe fruit.

This estate was founded by the Wallut family in 1990, when they decided to plant Viognier around their vacation home. The vineyards are located at an elevation of between 400 and 600 meters, which lends freshness and elegance to the estate’s wines. The 13 hectares of small plots are situated on hillsides, facing southeast and swept by the mistral, on marl and limestone soils. Half of the estate’s production consists of white wines, almost entirely made from the Viognier grape variety, which, thanks to the altitude, produces delicate, floral wines. The reds also feature full-bodied, floral bouquets.

The 2015 Beaumes de Venise Grangeneuve offers an intriguing combination of green garrigue aromas and notes of dark chocolate, along with a hint of crisp pepper. This wine is full-bodied and supple, with an interesting blend of flavors that sets it apart from an everyday wine.

Intense color with violet hues. A delicate nose of ripe black fruit against a smoky, spicy backdrop, with a hint of tapenade. A style characterized by suppleness and freshness, while still showcasing the aromatic characteristics of its grape varieties and region.
