100% Carignan.
The old Carignan vineyards are situated near Montpeyroux and Saint-Saturnin. The soil is argilo-calcareous. Exposed to the South, the vines benefit from an optimal exposition allowing them to reach perfect ripeness while keeping their freshness and fine tannins. Berries are meticulously selected during the hand harvest taking place at the beginning of October.
Nimalaya presents an intensely dark colour with deep purple hints. The nose is delicate and fresh; aromas of small red fruits prevail the first nose and then evolve towards aromas of violet, licorice and sweet spices. To the palate, delicate tannins keep in balance with the distinctive character of Carignan. Flavours of sour red fruits and spices blend just right with freshness and minerality. The finale is long and creamy.
Open the bottle 2 to 3 hours before drinking. Optimal time for consumption is after 5 to 10 years in your cellar.
