Estate-Grown Red Wine
Domaine Reserve, a single parcel wine, is made from the oldest vines of the winery vineyards. The age of the vines, outstanding exposure, and steep slope contribute to the unique personality of this wine expressed in its terroir. Winemaker Philippe Coquard uses a traditional fermentation to bring out the spice and berry flavors concentrated in the fruit. A year of aging in oak barrels enhances the depth, finesse, and complexity. Savor and enjoy!
