Cuvée Mourvèdre Red 2022

Fréderic Cossard

Frédéric Cossard's Cuvée M Mourvèdre is an organic and natural red wine made from Mourvèdre from the Mont Ventoux region in the lower Rhône Valley, and vinified in Burgundy. This is an excellent wine for laying down, with presence and personality.

Vinification

One hundred percent organic Mourvèdre from the southern Rhône Valley, harvested by hand, M Mourvèdre is macerated in whole bunches in a prefermentative manner, then fermented for a long time using indigenous yeasts and aged for one year in concrete eggs. No sulfites are added.

Tasting

Nicely structured, M Mourvèdre offers very fresh fruit (blackberry, raspberry) and ripe, fine tannins. Secondary notes of Mediterranean plants. Elegant and dense, yet fluid, this very tasty natural wine will be perfect for all your dinner parties, barbecues, and gourmet celebrations. He likes grilled Red Meats, black truffles, cold meats and cured meats, but you can make a (high-end) all-terrain table wine with it.
