Domaine des Lauriers, Parédaux Rouge Petit Verdot/Syrah 2022, Languedoc, France

About Domaine des Lauriers: The Cabrol family first established Domaine des Lauriers in 1969 with the purchase of their first vineyard plot. Throughout the years they have only acquired the best plots, which now stretches over 45 hectares of Mediterranean scrubland on a calcerous plateau of red soil and pebbles. Vines are tended to under the Terra Vits charter which is designed to ensure impact free agriculture.

Wine Making: Grapes are harvested at a nice ripeness. Once destemmed, grapes are put in tanks; early devatting in order to avoid too much substance and too many tannins  in order to keep fruit and freshness. Each grape is vinified separately for a later bottling.

Tasting Notes: Nice garnet-red robe, fresh nose with notes of ripe red fruit, black cherry and pepper. In the mouth, aromas of ripe fruit but also soft liquorice, “crunchy” wine with very smooth tannins.

ABV: 12.5%
