A blend of southern grape varieties, this wine reveals the freshness of Carignan, the richness of Grenache and the complex intensity of Mourvèdre. Farmed organically on heavy clay-limestone soils, the grapes then ferment in stainless-steel vats and macerate on skins for three weeks. The wine was raised on fine lees for 9 months in stainless-steel vats, allowing it to develop in aromas and unctuousness. This cuvée gives off aromas of plums, blackcurrant, dried figs and sage. It is very balanced, with a lively acidity.

Corbières Les Clos Perdus Cuvée 101 serve at a temperature of 16°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Côte de boeuf grillée, Civet de lièvre, Brie truffé.

Information about domain Les Clos Perdus

The domain Les Clos Perdus is managed by Paul Old and Hugo Stewart. Its name is a reference to the domain’s old vines, on a group of isolated hilltops long forgotten by other winemakers as they were too difficult to farm. Yields are strictly controlled in order to respect the specificity of each terroir and grape variety, which gives the wines remarkable character. The domain (32 parcels, 20 hectares) has converted to organic agriculture and some parcels are cultivated biodynamically.
