This Wine: Natural red wine with a medium body. Rich in character and high in alcohol but with remarkable freshness provided by great acidity. Deep, dark fruit with a touch of spice. Best served with food.
Notes on the Winemaker: Thierry Forestier and his wife Marie-Noëlle are located in the village of Souvignargues not too far from Nimes in the Languedoc. They have been making wine since 2004 and focus on amazing value reds that are light and fresh despite the warm climate down here. The inspiration for this style was after meeting Eric Pfifferling of Domaine L'Anglore.
