Wine intensity: powerful Wine dominant aroma: black fruit Tasting opportunity: wine of gastronomy Cohesion: 55% Mourvèdre, 25% Cinsault, 15% Grenache Noir et 5% Syrah Historic estate of the Bandol appellation (the vines already existed during the reign of Louis XV), Tourtine comes from a terroir where the Mourvèdre is fully expressed and allows the production of tannic, fruity and persistent wines. Combining power and elegance, this fragmentary cuvée is made from the selection of grapes cultivated on an exceptional 5.5-hectare plot, located on the top of the hillside near the village of Le Castellet, where the vines are exposed to the sun and the wind. Its ideal display allows this wine to retain its fresh aromas of berries, even after 15 years of sleep in the cellar. During winemaking, the grapes are sorted in the plot and cellar and then de-stemmed, trodden and cellared for three to four weeks of fermentation using the native yeasts. Ageing takes place in casks for at least 18 months before bottling. Reasoned viticulture and careful winemaking have therefore made it possible to produce this dense, mineral and racy wine, which we recommend you to savour with noble dishes.
