Wine:
The 2021 red Vin de France Tinus Rouge d'une Nuit is crafted using a unique technique: a rosé press blended overnight with a marc of old Grenache vines. Raised in tanks to preserve its full fruitiness, this red is both ingenious and surprising, unlike any other. It offers notes of fresh fruits and white flowers within a crisp and juicy framework. A pure fruit-forward red to enjoy without reservation, especially at this price!Vinification:
Hand-harvested, the juices from the Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon rosés were drawn off from the presses and left overnight on the old Grenache pomace before being drawn off into vats.Matured in stainless steel vats to preserve the purity of the fruit.
The estate chose to fill this wine with a Stelvin screw cap, preserving its freshness and eliminating any cork taint.
