Domaine les Creisses - Les Creisses Pays D'Oc Rouge 2023

This Les Creisses is a concentrated red wine with intense aromas of ripe black fruits.

Domaine des Creisses has made wine for more than 110 year in its Languedoc cellar, all beginning in the late 19th century. Philippe Chesnelong now runs the family vineyard and continues to focus on expressing the full potential of the terroir and revealing a great Mediterranean wine. His cousin, Louis Mitjavile, aids in the vinification process. Les Creisses represents two terroirs; first an 11-hectare stony clay-limestone plateau with deep soil. Secondly, a terrace of 20 hectares of Villafranchian gravel, interspersed with woods.

Exuberant fruit and an energetic and complex palate. Dark colour with purplish reflections. Powerful and complex nose, open to a festival of very ripe black fruits (blackberry and blackcurrant), spices (liquorice and pepper), garrigue (rosemary), leather, cocoa and mint. Exceptional density on the palate, powerful and expressive, with round and silky tannins. Very nice length finish.

30% Syrah, 30% Cab-Sauvignon, 25% Grenache, 4% Caladoc, 4% Carignan, 4% Mourvedre, 3% Marselan Alicante.
