Côte Dorée Languedoc Montpeyroux Domaine L’Aiguelière

Côte Dorée 2013 Languedoc Montpeyroux - Domaine L’Aiguelière


If you are a fan of complex reds from Languedoc, you will love the Côte Dorée. Aromas of red fruit dominate here, although Syrah makes most of the blend. A very round red wine, smoother than many of its peers. Really beautiful bottle to discover. Hint: Taste it blind with the Côte Rousse, you'll spend a memorable night!

91/100 "An enticing nose with mocha, cocoa and truffle over ripe, purple fruit. Uncompromising and ambitious with well handled new oak and touches of cinnamon spice. Clean and long."

Velours - or Velvet - is a complex and refreshing wine and its name is exactly what you feel when tasting this wine. This red wine boasts wonderful aromas of ripe black fruit with notes of toast, chocolate and vanilla. Ageing in oak barrels provide a very nice complexity here, with both fat and fine tannins on the finish. This cuvée is an excellent choice...

  Côte Rousse is an absolutely magnificent wine made of 95% old Syrah - and it is our little gem this week. It is rare to see such elegance in Languedoc, which is why some might compare this Côte Rousse to a Côte Rôtie. After a slow vinification, wine is aged carefully in oak barrels until the perfect moment. We loved its spicy notes, the concentrated...
