Chapoutier Les Arènes Cornas AOC 0,75 ℓ

M. Chapoutier's Cornas Les Arènes was born in vineyards located in the northern part of the famous French wine region of the Rhone Valley. It is produced exclusively with Syrah grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand. Fermentation takes place in cement tanks at controlled temperature for 10 days, followed by maceration of about 3 weeks. Subsequently the wine ages for 14-16 months in oak barrels and in small part in concrete tanks, in order to preserve the characteristics of fruitiness and freshness. It is characterized by an intense ruby red color, with violet reflections. The nose opens with evident hints of raspberry and black currant in jam. In the mouth it is dense and persistent, with well-smoothed tannins. Perfect to accompany marinated and salted meats, it is ideal in combination with game dishes.
