Description

Paul - Paul is all about tenderness. Tenderness in the terroir where the vine grows, the tenderness of the cooked earth which forms the amphorae where the wines age, the tenderness of the parents for the child who is growing up.
Signed, Paul's parents.

100% Cabernet Franc

A good deal of black cherry, blackcurrants, spring flowers, pepper and hints of herbs. Medium to full-bodied, with good acidity, lots of jammy fruit and a good finish.

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.

South-West

The South West Region of France, known for its diverse landscapes and rich winemaking heritage, offers a wide variety of distinctive wines. Benefiting from a mix of Atlantic and Mediterranean influences, the region's climate is ideal for viticulture. It is renowned for its robust reds, such as Malbec from Cahors and Tannat from Madiran, which are known for their deep colour, intense flavours, and excellent ageing potential. The area also produces elegant whites from grapes like Petit Manseng and Gros Manseng in Jurançon, known for their aromatic and vibrant profiles. Additionally, Bergerac and Gaillac are notable appellations offering both red and white wines of exceptional quality. With its combination of unique terroirs, indigenous grape varieties, and traditional winemaking methods, the South West Region provides a rich and varied wine experience for enthusiasts seeking something truly special.
