Château Saint Louis la Perdrix Rouge 2023
AOP Costières de Nîmes
This is made with 50% of 45-year old Syrah vines and 30% of 50-year old Grenache with 20% Mourvèdre and no oak-aging.
It is a vibrant purple with damsons on the nose. On the palate there is loads of soft raspberry and damson fruit with gentle tannins and a hint of liquorice at the finish. Quite delicious, and as the Vianney says “Best enjoyed when in good company!“
Château Saint Louis la Perdrix Les Grandes Tablées Rouge 2023
AOP Costières de Nîmes
This is made with 50% of 45-year old Syrah, 35% of 50-year old Grenache and 15% of very old vine Carignan. The grapes are destemmed and vinified in stainless steel, and then aged in old oak barrels for ten months.
It is medium/deep purple in colour. There are hereby aromas of the garrigue mixed with black fruits. In the mouth it is concentrated, silky with black cherries and summer pudding fruit flavours and a hint of mint and liquorice. There are soft, ripe tannins at the finish with a lingering aftertaste. This cries out for a good steak!
