Red dry
An organic, vibrant, and fruit-driven red wine from the Languedoc region in southern France, crafted by the biodynamic Domaine Ampelhus estate. Made from ‘Picpoul’, ‘Mourvèdre’, and ‘Grenache’ grapes, this wine perfectly expresses the energy of the Mediterranean climate and the natural purity of the fruit, achieved with minimal intervention.
In the glass, it reveals aromas of ripe raspberries, cherries, blackberries, and plums, accompanied by hints of herbs, pepper, licorice, and a touch of floral nuance. The bouquet is warm, inviting, and rich, yet maintains a fine balance between fruit and spice.
On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, smooth, and harmonious, with soft tannins and balanced acidity. Flavors of red fruits, spices, and a touch of oak unfold into a fresh, mineral-driven finish.
The grapes are grown near Lunel-Viel (Hérault department), on quartzite, sandy, and limestone soils that give the wine lightness, structure, and authentic terroir expression. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, without excessive filtration, and the wine is aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve its freshness and natural fruit character.
Serve at: 15–17 °C. Pairs well with: grilled beef, ratatouille, or medium-aged cheeses.
