BIODYNAMIC

Keywords : Spicy / Structured / Elegant

The wine : Discover Aleph, a gem from AOC Côtes-du-Rhône Villages crafted with passion by the Famille de Boel France ! This wine embodies the very soul of the Rhône terroir: raw elegance, controlled power and an aromatic richness that will delight lovers of fine bottles. On the nose as on the palate, this beautiful blend of Syrah and Grenache reveals captivating aromas of black fruits (blackberry, plum), spicy notes (pepper, licorice) as well as subtle hints of garrigue. On the palate, the balance is perfect: a beautiful structure, present but silky tannins, and a long finish.

A magnificent reflection of its appellation, which can be fully enjoyed in its youth but can also be cellared for a few years to refine and mellow. Grilled meats, slow-cooked dishes or even a beautiful ratatouille will pair wonderfully with this bottle!
