Minervois Cru La Liviniere "Borealis" Rouanet Montcelebre

Some wines are very special and are seen as champions of their regions.

Wines from La Liviniere in Minervois  epitomise this statement, recognised by wine lovers  as a true  "cru "of this quality focused wine producing region.

This 2** Hachette rated organic wine, produced by the brilliant Jey Rouanet from the family vineyard in La Liviniere, is testimony to the labour of love required to produce wines from the  miniscule yield of just 15hl/ha, resulting in just 3000 bottles per vintage.

The vineyard practices are "bee friendly" ensuring the local bee population is protected.

Intense and composed, with layers of dark chocolate, blackcurrant, plum and complex sandalwood notes on the nose, this is a masterclass in red wine making .

Fine yet firm, with heady floral overtones, white pepper and lashings of red berry and deep purple fruits, this is a wine to enjoy on those occasions that deserve something special.
