Château Sainte-Marguerite - Côtes-de-Provence - Fantastique rouge 2021

ORGANIC & VEGAN

Key words: Velvety / Elegant / Gourmet

The wine: The Fantastical red cuvée from Château Sainte-Marguerite is definitely part of very best Provençal reds ! Aged for 2 years in barrels, this delicious blend of Syrah and Grenache offers a very complex aroma evolving on notes of sweet and exotic spices (vanilla, cinnamon, cocoa , liquorice, roasting, coconut), velvety black fruits (cherry, blackberry, plum, blackcurrant) and is structured by beautiful melted tannins. An exceptional length completes the tasting of this magnificent bottle capable of being enjoyed now but also of aging elegantly in the cellar for a decade and more. Impossible to forget once tasted!

The Estate: The Family Fayard bought the Château Sainte-Marguerite on a whim in 1977: the quality of the plant material, the Mediterranean climate as well as the soils essentially composed of altered clay and shale were a real crush on Jean-Pierre Fayard and his wife. At the time of only 11 hectares, this superb Provençal estate today consists of a heritage of 75 hectares of vines. This Cru Classé de Provence has since come a long way and has great ambitions. The completion in March 2020 of a superb brand new cellar is proof of this. Certified Organic and Vegan, the property offers a magnificent high-level range that does honor to Provence: rosés but also reds and whites are up to the ambitions set by the family.
