A wonderful blend of grape varieties that produces a lovely red wine with notes of blueberries and blackberries. The ultimate approachable and easy-drinking wine, full-bodied and supple on the palate, with hints of blackcurrant and a fresh, balanced finish... What more could you ask for?

About the estate:

The European pond turtle, a nod to those fighting to protect endangered species, is often featured on the labels of the Uby estate (both vineyard and wine merchant), founded in 1956. At the helm of this vast vineyard (300 ha) since 1995, François Morel has implemented numerous initiatives focused on environmental stewardship and, for the wine merchant division, selects partners who supply organic grapes.

Review by Mr. JEAN LUC A. Posted on 10/03/2012

We’re familiar with the white UBY, but the red is well worth a try. It has a clean, slightly tart attack that evolves into a very pleasant, subtle bitterness. It has good length on the palate.
