"The perfect marriage of strength and finesse (Le Guide Hachette)".

"This deep amber 5-year-old, acclaimed in all selections and competitions, reveals complex, intense aromas of verbena, candied orange peel, spices and the beginnings of rancio.

About the wine:

This 5-year-old, with its deep amber color, has been acclaimed in all selections and competitions, revealing complex, intense aromas of verbena, candied orange peel, spices and the beginnings of rancio. A palette that infuses a mouth of superb balance, elegance, both round and nervous, with great freshness, stretched into a long, beautiful finish of dried fruit and citrus, with the added bonus of a return of rancio. The perfect marriage of strength and finesse.

About the domain :

Resulting from the merger of three caves, this cooperative bears the name of the inventor of vins doux naturels, Arnaud de Villeneuve. It brings together 320 winegrowers from Salses, Rivesaltes and Pézilla-la-Rivière, who cultivate some 2,000 hectares of vines (including 125 ha of organic vines) spread over 26 communes and a variety of terroirs.
