Description
In a nutshell:
A bright, fruity, yet velvety organic red blend from the Dordogne in South West France.
The lowdown:
At Château des Gendres they make some excellent organic wines in styles not too far removed from their neighbours in Bordeaux that are generally a bit easier on the pocket, their Bergerac Rouge 'Cantalouette' being a case in point. It's made from Merlot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc which are farmed strictly according to Organic and Biodynamic principles. Fermentation and lees ageing takes place in stainless steel - there is no oak ageing - to retain a bright primary fruit character. It has a lovely nose of cassis, mint and peppery spice and is soft and rounded on the palate with attractive plum and dark fruit flavours and a dry, savoury finish. Very moreish indeed.
When to drink:
Brilliantly versatile and easy drinking it's also good with roast lamb, or rich feathered game dishes.
