Domaine de Fontenelles, Cuvée du Poéte Renaissance 2003

CUVEE DU POETE RENAISSANCE, Domaine de Fontenelles, VDP de l'Aude Coteaux de Miramont from Douzens in Aude is a fine and well balanced wine with notes of vanilla and soft summer fruits.It's got a deep rich dark colour and good nose of cooked red fruits. It is made with a blend of Syrah and Old Carignan grapes and aged in Seguin-Moreau oak barrels for 10 months. It is quite moreish on the palate and makes me want to eat some rich dark chocolate truffles. Just a shame I have none in the house at the moment! Very good value for money at around 4€ a bottle. Well worth a 5✰✰✰✰✰ rating.

Winner of a silver medal at the Concours General Agricole, Paris 2004
