Agenais IGP, Southwest France — 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc
Aromas of citrus fruits with orange blossom, lime leaf, and a subtle hint of allspice. The palate is dry with a slightly weighted, almost oily mid-palate texture. Bright acidity, finishing with a lean mineral and gentle leafy, vegetal note that adds balance and complexity to an otherwise easy-drinking wine.
Pairing Suggestions: Enjoy well-chilled as an apéritif or alongside a charcuterie board with hard to semi-hard cheeses and pitted green olives. Also a natural match for Mediterranean fare — chicken souvlaki with pita, or a Greek salad with crumbled goat cheese.
Christophe Avi is a fourth generation winemaker, today he farms 20 hectares of deeply regenerative, minimal intervention, biodiverse vineyards. When Christophe isn't on the tractor or in the cellar, he's rescuing cats. We think that tells you everything you need to know about the kind of human being behind this bottle.
