Coteaux Varois en Provence L'Abracadabrantesque Les Terres Promises 2014

Abracadabrantesque is a blend of two native varieties: Mourvèdre and Carignan. Their 30 year-old vines are grown according to organic methods and thrive on the clay-limestone soils of this domaine, yielding around 30 hl/ha. Harvests are manual and the fruit is meticulously sorted and de-stemmed prior to fermentation in Burgundian barrels and foudres for a year before bottling. This is a powerful, complex wine for either drinking young or cellaring for a good 10 years. An infinitely pleasurable food wine which pairs spectacularly well with lamb tagine.
