Bel Amant is a spicy and fruity Fitou to enjoy with sweet and sour food... and good friends!
More infoBel Amant is made for spicy cuisine and sweet-and-sour combinations (in good company of course). Its fruity and spicy bouquet and soft, delicate tannins give it tremendous charm. The wine is made with Black Carignan, Black Grenache and Mourvèdre, vinified the traditional way. Once the stems have been removed the grapes are transferred to tanks for three weeks and the wine is matured in vats.
About the Producer Champ des Soeurs
Marie Valette and Laurent Maynadier, whose family have been producing wine for thirteen generations, have only one concern when it comes to this château in the maritime region of Fitou: quality. The terroir consists of hard limestone and schist, less than two miles from the sea and lakes. Its fifteen hectares are home to a multitude of grape varieties: Carignan, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah for the reds, and Grenache Blanc, Roussanne and Muscat Petit Grain for the whites. Viticultural methods are intended to be environmentally friendly, with the château adhering to the "Terra Vitis" specification. Yields are low, indigenous yeasts are favoured, and élevage is conducted in large wooden containers. The proximity to the sea gives the domain a wide thermal range, which is useful for obtaining refined, well-balanced wines.
