Tasting Notes:
A lush and powerful Rhône blend, layered with ripe black cherry, blackberry, and plum, intertwined with fragrant lavender, garrigue herbs, and warm spice. The palate is full-bodied and silky, offering supple tannins and a long, smoky finish that evokes the sun-soaked hillsides of Gigondas.
Pairings:
Ideal with slow-roasted lamb, wild boar stew, herbed Provençal vegetables, or aged sheep’s cheese. Pairs beautifully with rustic, hearty dishes that echo the wine’s earthy, savory character.
Production Details:
Sourced from low-yield vineyards on south-facing slopes, the wine is aged 18 months in French oak barrels, balancing ripe fruit with structure and depth. The careful hand-harvesting and traditional vinification honor the terroir’s intensity and elegance.
Story of the Vintage:
The 2014 vintage delivered a perfect balance of warmth and freshness, allowing grapes to reach ideal ripeness while preserving vibrant acidity. Domaine Du Pourra’s “La Réserve” captures this harmony, offering both immediate pleasure and the ability to age gracefully over the next decade.
