Le Sang des Seigneurs
In the Middle Ages Occitania (the actual southern half of France) is led by noble lords who share their political power. But Occitania is united by a common culture and a common language.

Châteauneuf-du-Pape
92 pts Gilbert & Gaillard
Blend of Grenache and Syrah carefully hand picked from plot selection. Long maceration and extraction by gentle punching down. The juices are vinified in wooden vats. The blend is then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels. The wine is aged for another 12 months in stainless steel vats and lightly filtered before bottling.
A fresh and elegant Chateauneuf du Pape which sublimates the fruity character of Grenache of this unique terroir.
This rich, elegant Cuvée is perfect with red meats grilled or stewed, venison and bull meat.
