Domaine Guilhem Barré – Natürlicher Mystiker

Presentation of Domaine Guilhem Barré - Natural Mystic

You would like to discover Cabardès , we have selected the vintage that enhances this appellation: Natural Mystic from Domaine Guilhem Barré . Purple in color, the red fruit is the protagonist of this deep nose rich in spicy nuances. Powerful palate, with fruity grapefruit tension. Finale of overwhelming freshness. The tannins are very fine and will give it good aging potential. A nice nod to Bob Marley for the name of this vintage.

HISTORY OF THE ESTATE

Since 2008, Guilhem Barré has worked tirelessly to translate the Carcassonne terroir into the language of wine. His company is located more precisely in Ventenac-Cabardès, a small town in Languedoc, and develops at the foot of the Montagne Noire mountains, located in the extreme southwest of the Massif Central. Guilhem inaugurates his agricultural and lifestyle project there, starting immediately with an organic viticultural approach, today adopted on approximately 6.5 hectares of vines, which benefit from significant organic contributions to the terroir. Located in the Cabardès appellation, in a windy region which is at the crossroads of two climatic universes, the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. The company mainly cultivates Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Grenache grape varieties, vinified in spontaneous fermentation.

FOOD AND WINE

Grilled meat, barbecued beef ribs, game, poultry. Spicy dishes will go very well with it.
