FAT bastard Pinot Noir
Wine Description
For the Vin de Pays d'Oc, we sourced grapes all around the Hérault. Vineyards are located in the foothills of the Massif Central near Pézénas and Béziers and Narbonne. For the Vin de Pays Ile de Beaute, the grapes come from all around Corsica, mostly from hillside vineyards as the island is very mountainous. The relatively high altitude of the vineyards provides the temperate conditions necessary for aroma and color development. In both appellations, the warm Mediterranean climate allows for fruit-forward flavor, smooth tannins on the palate and a long, persistent finish.
