Carignan 1903 2021 Domaine Le Roc des Anges

1903 Carignan de Shiste

1903年の樹が語る、カリニャンの品格。

ドメーヌの歴史が始まった1903年、カタランの「ラ・トラバセル」の丘沿いに植えられた一区画のカリニャンから生まれるキュヴェです。鉄分とシリカを含む結晶片岩土壌が、程よいミネラル感を与えます。野生酵母によりコンクリート大桶で発酵させ、木製大樽で9か月熟成。シルキーで濃密な質感に、円熟したまろやかさとしっかりしたタンニンが同居します。ジビエや鴨の血のソースとともに、熟成を待つ楽しみも。

Tasting note

This wine is made from Carignan trees planted in 1903 in a patch of land along the hill called ``La Travaselle'' in Catalan. Made from crystalline schist soil containing iron and silica (silicon dioxide), this cuvée was a model of sublime and elegant Carignan in an era of low production. Very round and ripe, with firm tannins, just the right amount of minerality, and a hint of freshness.

Food pairing

Hare blood and red wine sauce, duck blood sauce, game (birds)
