Description
Banyuls "Cuvée Pierre Rapidel" 2015 | Natural Sweet Wine from Domaine de La Rectorie
The Domaine de La Rectorie, under the direction of Thierry Parcé and his son Jean-Emmanuel, has embodied a quality winemaking tradition in Banyuls since 1984. With thirty hectares divided into about thirty plots, this mountain vineyard by the sea offers a unique diversity. Each micro-terroir, determined by factors such as orientation, altitude, grape varieties and proximity to the sea, is carefully vinified to express its distinctive character. The schist, omnipresent in the soils, gives a mineral signature to the wines. Thierry Parcé, with his experience, has passed on his know-how to the younger generation, ensuring the sustainability and excellence of the estate.
The 2015 Banyuls "Cuvée Pierre Rapidel" from Domaine de La Rectorie is a renowned natural sweet wine. It is mainly composed of 90% Grenache and 10% Carignan. It is fermented for four days with a grain mash, followed by a three-week maceration. Its oxidative ageing for eight years in a hundred-year-old cask gives it a tiled colour and rich aromas of dried fruits such as almonds, hazelnuts and dried apricots, as well as notes of candied orange zest and cinnamon. On the palate, it offers a long persistence. Its ageing capacity is exceptional, exceeding 20 years. To be enjoyed at a temperature of around 12°C, it goes perfectly with desserts rich in caramel, chocolate or vanilla, desserts with dried fruits, as well as with mature cheeses such as old Comté. Its alcohol content is 16.5%.
