GRAPES:
MARIE DELMAS Garnet 2018
Rivesaltes Garnet

The only grape variety is Grenache Noir.
Annual production: 1,800 bottles. Current vintage: 2018

TERROIR:
At an altitude of 100 to 200 meters, the clay-limestone hillsides with a schistous subsoil are facing south and take full advantage of the benefits of the sun and the Tramontane. This terroir brings a very nice minerality and a spicy finish.

HARVEST AND VINIFICATION:
The harvest is carried out by hand, in 10 kg crates, which are put in a cold room for 24 hours. The fresh bunches are destemmed. Fermentation can then begin.
Fermentation is stopped by mutage (addition of 7% pure alcohol) and the residual sugars are around 65g.

ADVICE FROM THE WINEGROWER:
The deep garnet color of this wine gives a real pleasure to serve it to your Guests.
This wine should be served chilled (12/14°C) as an aperitif in all seasons.
In its aromas, you will find the scrubland that surrounds the vineyard. Spices and white pepper will also be added. The aromas of red fruits (blackberry, strawberry and blackcurrant) are very present.
