Tax included
Hearty wine, elegant tannins, pine resin and roasted flavour; goes well with game.
Winemaker and vineyard: The 75ha of the Fontsainte (Holy well) winery lie above the little village of Boutenac. The Laboucarié family has strong ties with winemaking since the 17th century, the present estate has been founded in 1971. It is directed by Bruno Laboucarié.
Tasting: Dark and almost opaque purple with ink-coloured tints. The thick legs slowly run down the glass. Opulent and richly complex nose: aromas of cherry jam at first, followed by caramelised apples and spices such as vanilla and cinnamon. Next come notes of freshly grilled almonds and cacao pods. Warmly rich and vivid in the mouth. The elegant tannins and the density of the fruit combine voluptuously, giving a perfect balance. Great elegance is completed at length with notes of torrefaction and pine resin.
Service: Such a high-quality wine merits a dish to match its standing, such as carefully prepared game, or a braised tournedos... And don't hesitate to serve it with cheese, like a Saint-Marcelin or a perfectly mature Brie de Meaux!
