Notes on the Wine
The color is pale pink with a fuschia hue. The nose is complex, with aromas of wild strawberry, cherry, and raspberry. The palate is generous and harmonious, enlivened by ripe and persistent notes of raspberry. Enjoy chilled over the next 2 years with all your summer meals or by itself.
Notes on the Producer
The history of “La Perdrix” dates back to the 13th century. It was a Mecca for hunting under the Capetian rule and King Louis IX of France, better known as Saint-Louis, used to go partridge shooting (perdrix means partridge) on the estate’s grounds. The vineyards are composed of older vines and farmed sustainably. Harvest is done by hand in small cases to preserve the fruits. Vinificiation is done separately and then the wines are blended together for aging.
