Description of the wine
990 evokes the times of the feudal lords and the citadel of Fitou which has long marked the border between the kingdom of France and that of Aragon. For more than a thousand years the vineyard has been ideally located between sea and mountains on a terroir of limestone and schist.
Food and wine pairings offered by our chef
To be enjoyed at 18°C with grilled meats,
a piece of beef or game.
Vinification and aging
The harvest is triggered after very precise monitoring of maturity and daily tasting of the berries. The picking is manual and the grapes are meticulously sorted as soon as they enter the cellar. The 2 grape varieties are vinified separately, which makes it possible to make the most of the potential of each grape variety. The Carignan is vinified in carbonic maceration for a period of 10 to 15 days, and a traditional maceration is carried out (with total destemming) for the Grenache. Part of the wine is aged in barrels for a period of 12 months.
Tasting note
The dress is a beautiful garnet.
The nose reveals aromas of ripe fruit,
of spices, roasting and bud
of blackcurrant.
The power of the tannins is soft with a
velvety grain. The balance is perfect.
Conservation
Keep away from sunlight and at a constant temperature
