Intense ruby color with a mahogany hue. First the bouquet shouts concentrated, very ripe black fruit. After a little time in the glass, more complexity with grilled spice and toasted oak unfolds. The palate is lush and opulent with velvety tannins. The aromas of black fruit -blackberries, black cherries and plums - reappear with a complex empyreumatic web leading into mint. The finish is long with a perfect balance. To be opened one or two hours before serving at 16 degrees Celsius.
Cigalus, a place created from the passion and the intuition of Gérard Bertrand, is the root of our story and our move towards biodynamic agriculture. With the purchase of Domaine de Cigalus in 1995, Gérard Bertrand finally found the terroir he had been searching for. A terroir where noble grape varieties, both red and white, can express themselves in an exceptional and original way while still preserving a Mediterranean authenticity, the very identity of Languedoc wines. Domaine de Cigalus is the result of a desire to create a viticultural world apart. The Mediterranean influence of the area is reflected in the estate’s name. The vines totally surrounding the property only add to the magic and unique aspect of this estate. It was here that Gérard Bertrand decided to adopt biodynamic methods, and in 2010 the estate was awarded the Demeter label for certification of biodynamic agriculture.
