« Fabuleuse expression du Carignan, le Costières de Nîmes KA 2012 offre des notes classiques de vieux cuir, de poivre, d’herbes sauvages et un assortiment de fruits pourpres. Moyennement corsé à corsé, avec une excellente concentration et une pureté remarquable, il est à boire au cours des 4 à 6 prochaines années, bien que je ne serais pas surpris de le voir durer bien plus longtemps. » (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker) Coup de coeur de la RVF au salon millésime BIO 2015 Cliquez pour voir la vidéo !

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Noted domain 1*Star (A serious, commendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))
About the domain :
Since 1999, at the Domaine des Perrières, Marc Kreydenweiss and his wife Emmanuelle have been happily combining their Alsatian know-how with their passion for Midi grape varieties, especially reds, all using biodynamic methods. The result: magnificent wines that are completely out of the ordinary, the Ansata cuvée being a perfect illustration.
Guide des Vins Gault & Millau
Vin noté 16,5/20 (Très bon)
About the wine :
We love the unwavering density of its sustained, bright flavors, bursting with black grape juice, cistus, licorice and notes of bitter cocoa. A firm, chiseled structure, with the heterogeneous grain that freshly accompanies it to the finish. Noble!
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Vin noté (guide 2015) 91/100 (Vin formidable)
About the wine :
A fabulous expression of Carignan, the Costières de Nîmes KA 2012 offers classic notes of old leather, pepper, wild herbs and an assortment of purple fruits. Medium to full-bodied, with excellent concentration and remarkable purity, it should drink well over the next 4-6 years, although I wouldn't be surprised to see it last much longer.
