Famille de Boel France - Cornas - Ars Magirica 2023

BIODYNAMIC

Keywords : Aging potential / Power / Complexity

The wine : Ars Magirica is a Latin expression that can be translated as "the culinary art." It also evokes a close link between wine and gastronomy. The tone is thus set from the outset for this high-end cuvée from Domaine de Boel France: it is destined for the table!

During tasting, this 100% Syrah impresses with its velvety texture and its sunny charm. Aromas of blackberry, black cherry, and blackcurrant mingle here with spicy notes (pepper, licorice, garrigue) as well as a chocolatey touch and a hint of black olive. The whole is flavorful, balanced, and the tannic structure is well present, a sign that this great wine should be cellared if you want to enjoy it at its peak!

A cuvée of great breadth that will work wonders paired with a grilled rib of beef, a spiced lamb tagine, or even a homemade moussaka!

The estate : Located in the heart of the Rhône Valley, in Lemps, the young but excellent Domaine Famille De Boel France was founded in 2016 by Nelly France and Arnaud de Boel. Their vineyard covers 11 hectares of vines cultivated biodynamically and spread across the north and south of the region. The dynamic couple creates wines that combine indulgence and complexity, particularly under the AOC Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Villages, Saint-Joseph, and Cornas. The grape varieties are diverse, notably Syrah, Grenache, Caladoc, Carignan, as well as the essential Marsanne and Roussanne for the white wines. A very promising estate whose reputation has already been well established in just a few years. Go for it, you won't be disappointed!
