Domaine de Montgilet Grolleau: The Ultimate 'Glouglou' Red

Hailing from the Anjou-Saumur region of the Loire Valley, the Grolleau Vin de France rouge from Domaine de Montgilet is a stylish and effortlessly drinkable red. This cuvée champions the Grolleau grape, showcasing its potential for producing light, fragrant, and immensely enjoyable wines from the domaine's unique schist-based parcels.

Tasting Notes

• Colour: A beautiful, luminous ruby-red.
• Nose: Highly expressive, bursting with fresh, vibrant red fruit-think crushed raspberries and redcurrants-with a hint of spice and a lovely, subtle floral note.
• Palate: Light on its feet, yet full of flavour. The mouthfeel is juicy and lively, with a bright acidity that makes it incredibly refreshing. The tannins are soft, almost non-existent, making for a smooth, clean finish.

Food Pairing & Service

Known as a 'vin de soif' (thirst-quenching wine), this Grolleau is perfect for casual entertaining. Ensure it is served lightly chilled (14-16°C / 57-61°F) for maximum enjoyment.

• Pairings: Ideal with light lamb skewers (kebabs), a classic Pâté en Croûte, lightly sauced chicken and leek pie, or any summer barbecue fare.
• Best Time to Drink: Now, and over the next couple of years.
