Domaine Les Aurelles Languedoc Pézenas "Aurel" red 2015

Bettane + Desseauve Guide 2022 : 17/20. In this warm vintage, the tannin is finer than that of solen, with a pronounced airy dimension. There is a hint of iodine. A refined red with great length.

Technical sheet written by the domaine:

"Since 1995, our domaine has been producing, in Languedoc, wines of finesse and fruit integrity, recognized among the great wines of France. Present in fine dining and the best cellars, our wines benefit from a high level of rigor from the vineyard to bottling. Aurel 2014 is made from a blend of 85% Mourvèdre and 15% Grenache. Bottled at the end of 2018, it has continued to evolve and expresses itself beautifully today. “The sweetness and strength are now combined to create a very fine wine focused on the elegance of Aurel. Some airy floral notes bring lightness without detracting from the density of the volume, which retains complex and mineral notes. The wine's strengths maintain a youthful aspect and are still progressing. Its aromatic qualities combined with the silkiness of its tannins make it a great wine.” Comments from Margarethe Chapelle, oenologist and specialist in sensitive crystallizations, advisor to the domaine in the follow-up of its biodynamic cultural practices."
