CHATEAU ROMBEAU IGP COTES CATALANES ROUGE

Soil characteristics Soils seated on schistous colluvial deposits Winemaking Grapes from each separate plot are fermented separately in large still vats, allowing for slow, gentle extraction of the tannins. The wine is bottling at the château early the next year of the harvest. Tasting Notes This youthful wine is as dark as asphalt at the core, but it has a bright strawberry rim. Briar patch and mulberry begin the nose. Then, there are intense inflections of vanilla bean and extract, so the wine is slightly better suited to lovers of generously fruited and somewhat overtly oaked wines. Food and Wine pairing Savored with slow-roast lamb with cinnamon, fennel & citrus, beef fillet with beetroot & horseradish or Coq au vin with plump prunes.
