Le Rouge aux Lèvres 2010
Faugères
Les Amants de la Vigneronne
As the end of November nears so is the colder weather and the demand for ‘winter warmers’, slow cooked/grilled meats with sauces. With this in mind, Gérald has selected Le Rouge aux Lèvres 2010 as his wine of the week, a sublime full bodied red wine produced by Les Amants de la Vigneronne in Faugères.
A firm favourite at Bistrot Les Tontons this wine is also referenced in our wine bar, The Wine Shop & Tasting Room in Brighton , UK
Harvested by hand the two cépages are; Grenache 60% and Syrah 40%. A lengthy maceration is followed by a further 18 months in oak barrels to create an aromatic full bodied wine, dark in colour and fruity on the nose.
