About the wine:

This vintage amber has a brilliant golden-brown color. The nose reveals intense notes of cocoa, smoky wood, dried fruit and candied fruit, followed by a powerful, suave, warm and racy palate. Already a tasty wine, it's not finished making a name for itself.

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.
