TASTING NOTE: Exuberant fruit and an energetic and complex palate. Dark color
with purplish reflections. Powerful and complex nose, open to a festival of very ripe black fruits (blackberry and blackcurrant), spices (liquorice and pepper), garrigue (rosemary), leather, cocoa and mint. Exceptional density on the palate, powerful and expressive, with round and fresh tannins. Very nice length finish. Importer notes -
ABOUT THE WINE: Manual harvest. Fermentation was done in barrels and
ageing followed for 12 months. Destemmed harvest. Gentle fermentations and vinifications, minimal intervention, gentle extractions. Aged on fine lees in barrels -
ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Domaine des Creisses has made wine for more than 110 year in its Languedoc cellar, all beginning in the late 19th century. Philippe Chesnelong now runs the family vineyard. His cousin, Louis Mitjavile, aids in the vinification process. Les Creisses represents two terroirs; first an 11-hectare stony clay-limestone plateau with deep soil. Secondly, a terrace of 20 hectares of
Villafranchian gravel, interspersed with woods. - COUNTRY: France
