CHATEAU GUILHEM POT DE VIN ROUGE
$17.99Light and fruity wine, where one will recognize the Merlot with his delicious little basket of red berries with hints of liquorice.
Red wine is a type of wine made from dark-colored grape varieties. The actual color of the wine can range from intense violet, typical of young wines, through to brick red for mature wines and brown for older red wines. The juice from most purple grapes is greenish-white, the red color coming from anthocyan pigments (also called anthocyanins) present in the skin of the grape; exceptions are the relatively uncommon teinturier varieties, which produce a red-colored juice. Much of the red-wine production process therefore involves extraction of color and flavor components from the grape skin. It is a delicacy around the world.

Deep in the southwest of France, amidst dramatic rock formations and cliffs, the Lot River slowly snakes its way along the valley floor, coiling covetously around the charming town of Cahors. The diversity in architecture serves as a proud historical mark left by many previous generations of inhabitants. Once a former Roman town, Cahors was…
NOSE : Without effort, dried blueberry and ripe plum are immediately front and center of an incredibly dynamic yet classic nose. A quick glass swirl reveals fresh lavender and cocoa, followed by Bing cherry and a hint of black pepper.
PALATE : The cascade of flavors and textures is prodigious as the palate meanders between rich, dark blackberry jam and lively, almost candied raspberry. The tannins, quite supple at present, add depth and breadth to a robust mouthfeel and converge on subtle earth and tobacco undertones that contrast and highlight the wine’s polished and focused acidity.
FINISH : Refined and well-integrated, the long, rich finish reveals hints of anise and cedar, which, along with ripe fig and incredibly fine tannin, add additional layers of elegance and grace.
Owned by the vintner (Laurence Féraudo) behind Domaine du Pégau. These wines are emphatically not Chateauneuf-du-Pape, nor are they priced that way. However yields have been kept to the absurdly low limits permitted in Chateauneuf, and the wines have all of the density of that great Appellation.
The 8.3 hectares of vineyard spread over the east, south and south-west sides yield very individual wines, having a red colour with bluish reflections, and a subtle flavour of violet and peony. In the mouth it distinguishes itself with a lovely balance of silky tannins and wild red fruits such as wild strawberry or bilberry….

This wine is made with 100% Montepulciano – hand harvested in October, destemmed and crushed, then fermented in stainless under controlled temperature. Aged in stainless for almost a year then six months in the bottle.
These Montepulciano vineyards are located in Pianella, next to a small natural lake. The proximity to the lake allows the roots of the vines to stay humid even during the dry season. This freshness is found in the wine as it is aged in stainless to preserve this natural characteristic.
