Banyuls, Quintessence, Coume del Mas (50 cl) - 2019

Along with the Léon Parcé de la Rectorie cuvée, this Quintessence signed Philippe Gard is one of the great Banyuls "rimage" of the appellation. It has a very pure nose of warm black fruits, camphor and chocolate notes. The palate is very silky in the attack, it evolves on a full, dense body, set with numerous satiny tannins. Soft indeed, but with a great power of fruit and tannins on the finish. Guide Vert RVF: 95/100

Technique

Viticulture

This wine comes from old vines planted at high altitude, on the heights of Banyuls, with a yield of around 15 hl/ha. Here the vines, often centenarians, undergo a rigorous climate which allows a slow maturation, and to concentrate the flavours and the complexity. The grapes must have a sugar potential of over 286 g/l. The harvest passes through two sorting tables in the cellar, where up to 50% of the fruit is eliminated.

Oenology

The grapes are put into vats, after de-stemming. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks is done using indigenous yeasts. Maturation is carried out on the grapes with a further 5 weeks maceration to create a tannic structure and a complex flavour profile. The wine has 110 g/l sugar and 16.5% alcohol. It was aged in barrels for 14 months, 50% new oak.

Suggestions for accompaniment

Chocolate-based desserts: soft, fondant, tart. Also excellent on a blue cheese platter.
