Description

Built around Cabernet Franc and oceanic Syrah, the Reserve de Jeanne veers away from the typicalities of the region - offers an inviting nose of ripe blackberries, black cherries and cassis, layered with hints of sweet spice, garrigue and a touch of cocoa. The palate is generous and well structured, combining dark fruit richness with supple tannins and a fresh lift typical of the Cabardès appellation’s Atlantic and Mediterranean influences. Notes of plum, black pepper and subtle oak lead into a smooth, balanced finish. A versatile red that pairs beautifully with grilled lamb, roast meats or mature cheeses.

Maison Ventenac

Hailing from the Cabardès AOC in the northwest of Languedoc, wife and husband team Stéphanie and Olivier Ramé are the third generation of their family to farm in this promising region not far from the city of Carcassonne. Their unique range of wines deliberately eschew the stringent appellation laws of their home region in favour of pursuing qualities beyond those simply expected of them. Vines are organically farmed, with much of their production achieving certification in 2021.

Languedoc-Roussillon

Languedoc-Roussillon, situated in southern France, is renowned for its diverse and high-quality wines. It benefits from a Mediterranean climate, with abundant sunshine, hot summers, and mild winters, ideal for viticulture. Languedoc-Roussillon produces a wide variety of wines, including robust reds from grape varieties like Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre, as well as crisp, refreshing whites and rosés. The area is also known for its excellent sparkling wines, particularly Crémant de Limoux. The diverse terroir, ranging from coastal plains to mountainous areas, and a mix of traditional and innovative winemaking techniques result in wines with distinctive character and depth. Languedoc-Roussillon is a must-visit for wine enthusiasts seeking a rich and varied wine experience.
