This cuvée has a deep red color with ruby highlights. The intense, subtle nose offers grilled/toasted notes on first approach, before opening up to fine notes of cherry, blackberry, sweet spices and vanilla. The mouth is suave and silky. The ample, dense palate is lined with velvety tannins. Pepper and liquorice on the finish add tone and complexity.

About the domain :
Dom. de Rombeau has been in the family since 1810. A media-savvy winemaker, restaurateur and hotelier, Pierre-Henri de La Fabrègue, who took over the reins in 1993, has given the estate a new lease of life. The 90-hectare estate, 27 hectares of which are organic, produces muscat-de-rivesaltes, rivesaltes and dry wines, both AOC and IGP. A wide-ranging production well known to Guide readers.
