Description
In a nutshell:
A bright and fruit filled red from South West France.
The lowdown:
This Gascon French red, a blend of Tannat, Cabernet and Merlot, bursts with the unpretentious charm of sun-ripened fruit. An enticing nose promises cherry skin crunch and a hint of white pepper spice, leading to a palate that delivers on that promise with youthful exuberance. A tasty statement about the worth of honest winemaking and the power of place.
The Producer:
The Le Lesc range is made by Producteurs Plaimont, the leading wine cooperative in Southwest France who can be fairly said to have revolutionized the region's wine industry since its formation in the 1970s. Led by André Dubosc, the cooperative consolidated three smaller ones, in the process transforming everything from winemaking standards and grape cultivation to the marketing of their products. Based in Saint Mont, their vast vineyards span diverse terrains, producing a wide range of wines, from casual Côtes de Gascogne to prestigious appellation wines. With over 1,000 members and 5,300 hectares of vines, they are a dominant force in the region.
When to drink:
A trusty and reliable everyday drinking red great with a plate of charcuterie and crudités.
