DOMAINE DES CAPTIVES MONTFRIN LA TOUR PONT DU GARD ROUGE

From the South in your glass…. Juicy and plump as you like. The explosive mouth remains on a light texture… To taste a little cool in summer if you like. Pair with cold cuts, grilled meats.

Like much of France, the vintage got off to a slow start, but the Southern Rhône was spared the devastating frosts that impacted many other regions throughout the country. Despite the gradual start to the growing season, warm weather arrived by summer and periodic rain storms kept drought stress at bay. Dry conditions continued through harvest, and temperatures began to cool off by mid September. Yields were generous and quality overall was very good. Wines are structured, with good concentration and fresh, fruit flavours.
