Tasting Cuvée spéciale – Minervois 2012

Cuvée spéciale – Minervois 2012 is brilliant garnet color.

The nose is beautifully complex, blending delicate aromas of red fruits and spices (nutmeg, clove).

The palate is indulgent, offering notes of raspberry and cherry compote, supported by hints of red licorice.

Mineral nuances complement this harmonious profile, leading to a beautiful, lingering finish. A 2012 Minervois that combines indulgence, freshness, and power.

Food and wine

A delicate and fruity wine.

The subtlety of this vintage will pair perfectly with stuffed pigeons, truffled aligot, or a veal chop with mushrooms. For cheeses, we recommend Saint-Nectaire or an alpine Beaufort.
