Domaine Saint Amant - Beaumes de Venise Grangeneuve 2015

Bettane & Desseauve

About the wine:

A truly 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 ripe, juicy fruit.

About the estate:

This estate was founded by the Wallut family in 1990, when they decided to plant Viognier vines around their vacation home. The vineyards are located at an altitude 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 wind, on marl and limestone soils. Half of the estate’s production is white wine, almost entirely dedicated to the Viognier grape variety, which, thanks to the altitude, produces delicate and floral wines. The reds also possess full-bodied and floral bouquets.

Robert Parker - Wine Advocate

About the wine:

The 2015 Beaumes de Venise Grangeneuve offers an intriguing blend 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 combination of flavors that sets it apart from an everyday wine.

Gilbert & Gaillard

About the wine:

A concentrated color with purple 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.
