Boissy & Delaygue Cotes du Rhone Lou Pontias 2021 750 ML

Introduction

Deep, elegant and bright color with seductive aromas of ripe black, violet and licorice punctuated by peppery notes. There is a beautiful silky mouthfeel from the tannins which are elegant and well-balanced. It concludes with a velvety, long and intense finish. Lou Pontias is the name of the gentle breeze which wafts through the vineyard, refreshing the grapes on summer mornings. The vineyard is situated in the Southern Rhone Valley, on slopes close to the village of Puymeras up to 400 m altitude, and the village of Richerenches. These plots allow, for Puymeras a difference of temperatures between day and night, and for Richerenches to benefit from a very sunny position. This wine is made with grapes selected at optimum ripeness. The Syrah grapes benefit from ideal growing conditions cool temperatures at night, and hot, sunny conditions in the daytime.
