Succulent, juicy fruit and spicy - a fantastically approachable wine!
Production
Based in the southwest of the Languedoc in the Aude region, the 40 year old vines thrive on silty/sandy soil. Vines are cordon trained and harvesting takes place in late September. Syrah grapes are de-stemmed and macerated in tank before being bottled.

Tasting notes
Enticing aromas of juicy cherry, plum and blackberry. The palate is succulent and spicy with mouthfuls of lush, ripe berry fruit flavours with a touch of coffee and spice.
Food match
A good match with herby sausages and provincial French foods.

Meet the producer
Like all good stories, that of Boutinot France is both long and a little bit complicated! Boutinot began as a tiny importer in 1980, specialising in French wines. Paul Boutinot himself began by personally selecting the wines from France, back in the UK he would unload the trailer by hand. And deliver the crates of wines to customers himself. But good things grow and by the end of the decade we had become a bigger and better company. A company that not only sought out great wines but made them too. After 10 years later, Boutinot France started in January 1990. The first office was in the middle of the vines in Julienas; perfectly located to navigate the Beaujolais and Macon regions on the quest to make beautiful wines.
