Although we've used Cinsault from Oc for many, many years, this is the first vintage that we’ve bottled Cinsault on its own. This is characteristically fragrant, fine-boned and croquant, meaning “crunchy”.
Production
A range of wines that express the character of their grape varieties in Guillaume's preferred style, hence 'Selon Létang' (according to our winemaker Guillaume Létang).

Tasting notes
This 'croquant' Cinsault is bright and deliciously enjoyable. Unoaked, vibrant redcurrant and raspberry fruit with a wild, delicately tannic herbaceous edge.
Food match
Delicious slightly chilled, this Cinsault's bright, earthy notes and acidity marries beautifully with Asian duck dishes, beef or game.

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.
