Located in the heart of Provence, in the southern part of the Luberon, Lourmarin is one of the most beautiful villages in France. Made from a selection of vineyards at the foot of the village, this cuvée is intense, with notes of fresh blackcurrant liqueur and licorice. It is a full-bodied, round wine with noticeable yet silky tannins... A truly beautiful Luberon red!
