Tasting Notes

The aromas caress the nose with notes of yellow fruits such as mango and vine picked peaches. In the mouth it titillates the senses with its suave and balanced tones. Truly a supple and smooth wine that will delight any palate.

Producer details

Plots of land of schist and granite on the French Riviera, the vineyards of the Angelvin grow on different soils, the hillside facing the sea and sun, the small parcel between scrubland and forest. The Angelvin family has developed close partnerships with the best small wineries around the area of Saint-Tropez, who through their experience pamper their vines and emphasize quality over quantity.

In the vineyard

At the time of harvest, the winemaker from Angelvin visits the farms of partner winemakers, taste the grapes and define the optimum harvest dates and that's when the pickers cut the clusters of Grenache, Cinsault and Mourvèdre, and take them to the winery. The grapes are harvested at night as it is cooler and the cells of the rich skin colour and tannins are more resistant to crushing and deliver less content. The heat also tends to accelerate the process of maceration oxidation, which would provide greater colour.

In the winery

When they arrive at the winery the grapes are cooled and pressed immediately to ensure the pale colour and a good fruit quality. Different juices from each plot are fermented separately in small tanks isolating their respective characters. It is during the assembly that the whole experience of the House of Angelvin comes into being, only the best tanks are combined to constitute the cuvée Angelvin Ageing 3 months on lees as a way of maturing wine. The aim is to have both power and finesse balanced in the final wine.

Food Recommendations

It is a charming accompaniment to a fresh seafood salad, Asian cuisine, white meat or a sublime solo.
