Wine Details

Occultum Lapidem Rouge 2020 6x75cl

AOP Côtes-du-Roussillon Villages Latour de France

This wine is dominant of graphitic, leather notes with intense aromas of pepper & black fruits. It is rich and dense on the palate with delicate tannins and a great freshness.

Vineyards

The vineyard is located on Gneiss and schistose soils from the Devonian Period and limestone from Kimmeridgian Period.

Vintage

The very mild winter was accompanied by heavy rainfall (+300mm accumulated in January). Great water reserves built up in the soil, a welcome store in preparation for the region’s scorching summers. Then came a relatively cool start to spring, delaying budburst. About ten days later than a normal vintage.

Winemaking

100% destemmed. Extraction is only carried out by punching of the cap during a long maceration (at least four weeks)

Enjoy with:

  • Grilled and Roasted Red Meats
  • Pizza/Pasta
  • Casseroles/Stews
A nice piece of beef
