This is a smooth, supple red from the foothills of the Alps, where cooler air ensures a bright, vivid note to the red cherry and wild raspberry fruit flavours. Hints of vanilla and elegant spice ensure a silky finish.
Mont Rocher Malbec Vielles Vignes 2022
The wines of Terres Fidèles are designed to capture the wild spirit of south-western France, where old-vine Grenache, Carignan, Malbec, Cinsault, Viognier, and more thrive. All are authentically crafted, small-batch wines rooted in place. As founder Fergal Tynan MW explains: “Over the last two decades, we’ve been creating wines in the wilds of south-western France – embarking on adventures; exploring, discovering and rediscovering remarkable places and vineyard sites. From the foothills and valleys beneath the iconic Pyrenees, out through the gorges to the coastal areas of the Mediterranean, we’ve journeyed with our friends – exceptional growers who excel at their craft and have an inherent respect for the land that they and theirs are a part of. It is these people and places that inspire our winemaking.” Winemaking Harvested at optimal ripeness in mid-September, the grapes are destemmed and crushed before undergoing a three-week maceration. Extraction is achieved by gentle pumping over during the first ten days, ensuring purity and balance in the finished wine. Tasting Note Rich, smooth, and mouth-watering, this Malbec reveals aromas of blueberry and ripe plum, with a rounded palate and supple texture that highlight the variety’s expressive side. Viticulture The Malbec grapes are sourced from high-altitude hillside vineyards in the Haute Vallée of Limoux. Here, rugged, limestone-rich soils and the cooler climate produce some of the most distinctive and expressive old-vine Malbec in the region, marked by purity of fruit and a clear goût de terroir . Food Matching Perfect with barbecued meats or strong, characterful cheeses. Technical Details Variety : 100% Malbec
