Domaine Les Roc des Anges Asterolide Mourvèdre 2022
The name "Asterolide" refers to the small, star-shaped wild yellow flowers that blanket the parcels of Mourvèdre planted on schist soils. This Mourvèdre is both fleshy and energetic, with a surprising mineral streak that balances its generous structure and leads to a clean, long finish. Fermentation and aging in stainless steel tanks preserve the wine’s freshness and give it a vibrant lift. The nose reveals dark berries and cassis, while the palate offers a delightful mix of wild strawberries, blackberries, with hints of black pepper and cocoa. Balanced by a lovely wash of acidity, this is the perfect red for pairing with burgers and chops on the grill, yet equally enjoyable for sipping on a crisp autumn evening. Enjoy now through 2029.
