Winemaker

With this Cabernet Sauvignon, Maison Castel combines a modern approach to winemaking with French savoir-faire. Finding the right balance between fruit and structure means the grape variety can fully express itself.” Cedric Jenin

Appellation

This Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the Pays d'Oc PGI which spans three areas (Aude, Hérault and Gard): its has aromatic diversity thanks to the characteristics of each terroir. The Hérault hillsides and inland areas bring freshness, structure and colour to the wine, while the foothills give a certain rigour and the Mediterranean coast adds softness.

Vinification

Working with their long-term partners, the Maison Castel team carefully chooses the vineyard parcels that will meet the criteria to make the desired wines. Regular checks on the ripening process plus the saignée method give this wine its highly expressive character. Ageing is done by Castel using a specific wood to bring out the fruit aromas.
