The name: ‘L’ampoule’ is the nickname given to the Burgundy-style wine bottle. There is a very typical southern expression to describe uncorking a bottle: ‘Et si on faisait péter une Ampoule!…’ or in English, ‘How about cracking open a bottle!’

Winemaking: Harvesting by hand. Classic winemaking techniques and tank ageing.

Tasting notes: Encapsulates the fruit and finesse of the Cinsault grape. This is a lifted, satisfying wine for pleasure which shows all the character of its schist terroir.

Food pairings: Mediterranean cuisine and grilled foods, for example.
