Discover the grape variety: Tannat meunier
Deeply coloured and structured reds with a dense purple colour, firm and solid tannins, a powerful palate with preserved acidity, and signature aromas of black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant), spices and garrigue notes. Rare profile, close to classic Tannat. A rare felty-leafed (meunier) variation of Tannat, now marginal, preserved in South-West varietal collections for its heritage value and studied for its genetic interest.
