IGP Pays du Gard Roc d'Anglade Réserva Especial N°8 Rémy Pédréno

The wine

The cuvée is a meticulous blend of several vintages, made up of 50% Carignan, 25% Mourvèdre and 25% Grenache. The vines, nestled on the north, east and south-east facing hillsides, grow on soils composed of limestone with a clay and silica subsoil. The healthy practices of organic growing are followed, allowing each vine to draw all the necessary nutrients needed for its development from the soil. In the cellar, each vintage is vinified separately in wooden barrels. Finally, they are all blended so that the vine can age in bottles for 12 months.
The elegant ruby-red colour unveils a nose marked by aromas of red and black fruits, such as cherries and redcurrants, alongside notes of cinnamon. The powerful and refined palate reveals rich tannins which pair well with the indulgent fruity flavours. This cuvée has good potential for ageing.

About the Producer Roc d'Anglade

Rémy Pedreno is a former IT engineer who has now switched his area of specialisation to the vines… and not just any vines! His ten hectares, located in Langlade in the Gard, have a northerly exposure and consequently benefit from a superb cool climate. He works outside the appellation, which gives him free rein in producing his vins de pays. The domain is recognised for its talent and diversity, and the adventure continues: Rémy Pedreno has just planted new parcels in the limestone terroir of Les Mégères, in Langlade.
