The Plaisir Petit Plaisir Red Blend flows from garnet red color into the glass and spoils the nose with an aromatic bouquet of black cherries as well as delicious hints of fine spices, fragrant vanilla and subtle oak notes. The palate presents itself full-bodied, yet wonderfully elegant and mature. Fruity nuances of black blackberries and cassis marry with seductive nuances of white chocolate, cigar box and pencil shavings, which finish with subtle tannins and sweet red berry fruit long-lasting and pleasantly soft.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were hand-picked at optimum ripeness, completely destemmed on arrival at the cellar, sorted and selected berry by berry with great care and then pumped into stainless steel tanks where the grapes fermented at a regulated 24 ° C.. During fermentation, the juice was pumped over daily to extract maximum color, tannins and flavor. Once fermentation was complete, the wine remained on the skins for another six to eight hours before undergoing and completing malolactic fermentation partly in tank and partly in barrel. Finally, the wine was filled into a combination of new, second, as well as third-filled French oak barrels, where the wine aged between 16 and 22 months before bottling.
