Castelas Tranquille Pinard

Rhone, France
Grenache, Syrah
Life is already so serious according to winemaker Karine. That is why she did not want to make a heavy dinner wine, but rather a frivolous wine that screams conviviality. Full of juicy, pure fruit, it is almost irresistible when slightly chilled.

About the winemaker

“In 1952, four winegrowers in the village of Rochefort-du-Gard faced a dilemma: they were harvesting high-quality grapes in the sunny southern Rhône, but none of them could earn enough money to afford the costs of a wine cellar. Once they started talking, they quickly came to a solution: working together. Together they could bear the costs. This turned out to be the prelude to Vignerons du Castelas”

Rhone, France
Gard is a special Mediterranean part of France. It is a transitional area in southern French viticulture, as it marks the border between Provence, Languedoc and the vineyards of the Rhône Valley. This means there are many different microclimates and soil types to discover. Not only ideal for wine growing, but certainly also for holidays! The vineyards for this wine are all located in the Southern Rhône. Yet winemaker Karine chose to make a “Vin de France” instead of a Côte du Rhône. Without the guidelines of a well-known appellation, it is much easier to make an original wine that may not be too standard, but is still super tasty.

Lekker licht en fris voor een wijn uit de Rhône, perfecte rode zomerwijn. Mijn nieuwe favoriet voor bij de BBQ

Een van de lekkerste wijnen die ik dit voorjaar dronk. Licht gekoeld gedronken is het net een spontane vrouw in een zomerjurkje die met rode lipstick op je lippen kust... met je ogen dicht proef je framboosjes en bosaardbeitjes en zie je de paarse viooltjes in het gras staan. tijd om een dansje te doen

Een speelse ervaring met sappig, puur fruit. Karine's visie op een lichte, gezellige wijn komt tot leven. Perfect licht gekoeld, is deze Grenache-Syrah blend onweerstaanbaar. Een aanrader voor wie het leven niet te serieus neemt.
