"a great classic of larzac always at the highest level! the nose of this montcalmès is intoxicating and precise, with complex notes of nutmeg, spices, black fruits and ash. a mint freshness animates it. the texture in the mouth remains firm and the persitsance of spices is clear. it is a wine to keep, that the most patient will savour to the peak of its flavors in a decade. this great cuvée was raised for more than 2 years in old romanée conti barrels, which partly explains its level. terroir: this cuvée is a blend of 3 grape varieties: syrah (60%), grenache (20%) whose vines aged about 30 years flourish on a limestone plateau exposed to the north. they benefit from a cool climate. mourvèdres (20%) are located on rolled pebbles near aniane. vinification: destemming, crushing, vinification of each grape individually with indigenous yeasts, maceration of about 30 days according to the vintages. pigeage, blending the grape varieties two months before bottling. the ageing lasts 2 years in barrels. unfiltered, bottled in an old moon. food/wine pairing: duck with orange, rib-eye steak, grilled meats."
