Detailed info
Detailed info
Quite popular in Quebec, Domaine de la Terre Rouge specializes in winemaking from Rhône Valley varietals. Tête-à-Tête is sort of the second wine of the famous Noir cuvee. It marries Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah, aged in oak casks for 16 months. The Terre Rouge selection, of which this cuvee is part of, is a reference to the volcanic soils typical of the region. This is a sunny, fleshy wine marked by notes of jammy black fruits, cooked fruits, smoke and meat. Since it has already been through a decade, this is your chance to discover it in an ideal evolutionary phase!

(Automatically translated) WOW! Californian red wine produced by Terre Rouge which specializes in Rhône grape varieties. This cuvée is rich, velvety and already ready to drink. Perfect companion of a braised beef, roastbeef or beef skewers.
