Growing vines on the slopes of the Minervois, the Danglas family produces great, full-bodied wines with silky tannins. Horizon 2021 is a vibrant blend of Syrah and Grenache. The wine is round and balanced, with beautiful persistence and a fruity, spicy finish.
Grapes varieties
70% Syrah- 30% Grenache
Vinification
For Horizon 2021, the different grape varieties are harvested according to their ripeness. The Syrah is hand-picked at full maturity in late September. They are vinified separately, in a traditional manner. Pressing is followed by aging in concrete tanks. The blend is made at the end of the vinification process..
Tasting
Deep, rich purple color. A delicate nose, dominated by plum, cherry (bigarreau), and spices. Beautiful, smooth attack. The texture is velvety, with sweet fruit, offering excellent depth and a long, beautiful finish.
Accord food and wine
Horizon 2021 is a harmonious wine that pairs perfectly with local delicacies: cassoulet, duck breast, game meats. Or why not surprise your guests with a beautiful platter of mountain charcuterie and cheeses.
