Owned by Kilkenny man, Gay McGuinness, Domaine des Anges is situated on a hillside facing Mont Ventoux, which rises to 1912m in altitude. The mountain has a profound influence on the climate of the vineyards with cool evening breezes refreshing the vines in summer after the day’s intense heat, and so enabling the vines to maintain high natural acids and elegant tannins. The Domaine is managed by Ciaran Rooney, a graduate of Stellenbosch University where he obtained a BSc degree in Oenology and Viticulture.
This full-bodied wine is a blend of 75% Grenache and 25% Syrah. Rich raspberry flavours with touches liquorice and chocolate on the nose. Subtle woodland fruits and the palate, followed by silky tannins leading to a full, rich finish. |
