Wine Description for Ace of Spades Les Myrs VdF 2020 1500ml – Matassa by Matassa
- Colour & Appearance
- A muted, vibrant cherry red, shot through with distinct violet reflections.
- Nose
- The wine exudes a fascinating, almost archaic primordial quality. Deep aromas of blueberry, sloe and blackcurrant meet rustic notes of leather, woodsmoke and a hint of animality. Playful accents of violet and peonies lend the wild bouquet a feminine elegance.
- Palate
- On the palate, this Matassa reveals itself as soft and distinctly fruit-laden, yet without any heaviness. The structure is characterised by earthy nuances and a fine minerality. At a sensationally low 11% alcohol, it offers an enormous drinking flow – an honest, purist wine with vibrant liveliness.
- Grape Variety & Vinification
- A characterful blend of Carignan and Mourvèdre, fermented and aged puristical in concrete tank, to preserve the freshness of the vines unadorned.
- Food Pairing Recommendations
- Excellent with pan-fried blood sausage on beetroot with rosemary, grilled kid goat with black olives or a reduced porcini carpaccio with argan oil.
- Special Features
- An unaffected expression of Roussillon that unfolds its full dynamism and conviviality in the 1.5-litre magnum.
