Banyuls 2014
Languedoc - Roussillon - Banyuls Rimage
Dégustation
Nez :
powerful, shifting between black fruit and red berries, giving it a lovely freshness, subtly complemented by notes of cocoa.
Bouche :
sumptuous balance between the solar strength of the wine and the fineness of its tannins. It has a great persistency with sweetness which develops greedily.
Les conseils du Sommelier : Recommended food pairing: chocolate cakes and desserts. Serving temperature: 12°C. Ageing potential: over 5 years.
Cépage(s) :
100% Grenache Noir.
Vendanges :
The crop is hand-harvested when grapes are very ripe.
Sol :
Terraced vineyards on old mica-schist from the Primary era.
Vinification :
The grapes are destemmed and crushed. The maceration is long with an addition of alcohol to favour the extraction of aromas and tannins.
Elevage :
The wine is aged for 8 months in vat in a reducing environment. After bottling, and before its release for sale, the wine undergoes another 3 months’ ageing.
