Winemaking notes
The grapes are harvested, destemmed and then either hot macerated to extract colour a beautiful dark red colour, and
some are cold fermented to get the best possible varietal fruit extraction. The fermentation is then conducted at controlled
temperature with gentle pumping overs to extract only the better tannins. The different pressings are then blended before
Christmas and are aged in stainless steel tank to preserve fruit and round tannins.
Viticultural notes
Felicette red is a fruity and very well-balanced blend produced in the South-West of France, between Narbonne and
Beziers, with a hot and dry mediterranean climate influence. Soils are sandy and silty as well as a chalk/ clay mix on the
hillsides.
Tasting notes
A bright red colour with purplish reflections. A powerful nose of violets and red fruits. Very tasty in the mouth with
raspberry and plum aromas. Medium-bodied on the palate, soft and juicy.
Pairing notes
Pair with pasta dishes in tomato sauce, oriental and thai dishes.
