Côtes du Roussillon Villages - Préceptorie de Centernach – Cuvée Coume Marie - 2007

Description: The Préceptorie de Centernach was once a templar foundation. This estate, located close to Maury, was created in 2001. Today, it is headed up by Aurélie Pereira, Joseph Parcé and Sylvio Marocchino.

The Cuvée Coume Marie, impregnated with Mediterranean culture, is made from old Grenache Noir, Carignan and Syrah planted on schist and clay soil.

Nose: intense and complex, the nose gives off aromas of Mediterranean scrubland, Morello cherry, blueberry and blackberry, followed by notes of pepper, chocolate and jammed fruits.

Mouth: it possesses an uncommon build, but its density and concentration of flavours are not excessive. On the contrary, this wine develops a body of great finesse. Generosity is balanced out by a vivacious finale.

Food-wine match: this vintage is a fine match for traditional Southern French recipes (Provencal daube, rabbit with thyme, lamb with rosemary...). Served chilled in summer, it is a wine that can accompany barbecues. In winter it is a perfect companion for dishes based on game, truffles or mushrooms.

Storage: 2/8 years.
