Domaine La Tour Vieille Nv Cap De Creus Ranci Sec
Description: | Black Grenache 90% and Carignan 10%. This red high-alcohol wine is fully fermented (it no longer contains any sugar) and is then stored in half-filled barrels that induce oxidation. The last step after many years of ageing in barrels takes place in a foudre (big oak barrel), which is only half-full. This foudre is a perpetual barrel : only the few wine removed during the year for bottling is replaced from another barrel. It acquires rancio character, definable in particular by walnuts aromas. |
