Côtes Catalanes Rouge IGP "Le Pilou" 2022 - Domaine Olivier Pithon

A red wine from old Carignan vines planted on a limestone plateau. Low yields and manual work give a concentrated but not heavy wine, aged for 18 months. It accompanies red meats, especially sliced beef with porcini mushrooms. The nose shows black fruit and cherry, with floral, mineral and subtle spicy nuances. The palate is broad and enveloping with velvety, precise tannins, and fruit returns persistently in the finish alongside a pleasant mineral sensation.
