Revelette PUR Rouge VdF 2022

Wine description for Revelette PUR Rouge VdF 2022 from Revelette

Colour & appearance

The PUR Rouge presents itself in the glass in a deep, seductive garnet red - a colour that already hints at the concentrated power of this single-varietal Grenache.

Nose

The bouquet is a prime example of the Mediterranean elegance of Provence: Sour cherries and Black cherries dominate, supported by juicy Blueberries and Blackberries. Subtle notes of Cinnamon and Provençal Herbs give the wine its regional identity. Despite its southern ripeness, this Grenache retains a remarkable freshness - a credit to Peter Fischer's meticulous cellar work.

Palate

The true class of this wine is revealed on the palate. Acid has plenty of pulling power and keeps the dark fruit in perfect balance. The fruit flavours are crisp and firm to the bite, never overripe or jammy. The Tannin is ripe and accessible, but offers enough grip for structure. This is not an intellectual wine, but a easy-drinking, grippy Grenachewhich invites you to enjoy it immediately.

General information

The grapes come from 30 hectares of vineyards near Jouques, in the shelter of the legendary Montagne Sainte-Victoire. The 28-day mash fermentation in 500 litre barrels at a controlled temperature of 25-27°C and the eight-month ageing in used demi-muids give the wine its harmonious structure without excessive wood influence.

Food pairing suggestions

Perfect for Grilled lamb ribs with a lemon-honey glaze, Basmati with lamb and sultanas or stuffed red peppers. The wine harmonises particularly well with Mediterranean spices and grilled meat.

Special features

An authentic Provence Grenache that skilfully combines tradition and modernity. Now ready to drink and an outstanding ambassador for the terroir of the Montagne Sainte-Victoire.
