Famille Fabre is a respected name in the Languedoc wine growing region, which itself has grown in stature over the last couple of decades. Ch\u00e2teau Coulon Terrasses de L\u00e9zignan 2022 does nothing to diminish the growing appreciation of this collection and this beautiful corner of France.<\/p>\n
Famille Fabre have been cultivating the land since the 17th century. With the new generation of Cl\u00e9mence Fabre and her husband Louis-Jacques, they have released four unique cuv\u00e9es just in time for the end-of-year celebrations. Ch\u00e2teau Coulon Terrasses de L\u00e9zignan 2022 is just one of these four wines.<\/p>\n
Terrasses de L\u00e9zignan should soon be granted \u201ccru communal\u201d status. This is a noteworthy cru and is the first vintage of this cuv\u00e9e. A wine referred to as cuv\u00e9e is generally a special blend of more than one grape variety. In this case it is 80% Syrah and 20% Grenache. These grapes make a worthy marriage, with Grenache bringing luscious fruit and Syrah offering depth of character. The average age of these vines is 24 years so well established, and this wine is certified organic.<\/p>\n
The wine has AOP (Appellation d’Origine Prot\u00e9g\u00e9e). This means the wine came from a specific regulated region. The regulatory commission ensures that producers follow particular rules in making their wine, thus ensuring a degree of quality control for wines bearing AOP labels.<\/p>\n
This wine from Ch\u00e2teau Coulon offers spicy black pepper with a hint of tobacco and plenty of red fruit to the fore. Its long finish makes this wine the perfect choice for rich roast meats, game pies or venison casserole.<\/p>\n
Serve this delicious wine at 16-18\u00b0C and open the bottle a while before pouring to allow the wine to breathe.<\/p>\n
