Domaine de la Vieille Julienne Vin de France “Ceci est un flacon de vin” Rouge 2022 (750ml)

The inaugural release of Ceci Est Un Flacon de Vin de France introduces a fresh and playful new side to the domaine. Bursting with juicy red cherry, raspberry and ripe plum fruit, the wine is immediately vibrant and expressive, with subtle spice, wild herbs and a gentle floral lift adding extra charm and energy.

Blending Grenache with Mourvèdre, Counoise, Cinsault and Syrah, this new cuvée is designed very much for youthful drinking and pure enjoyment. Half of the Syrah undergoes carbonic maceration, bringing an extra layer of brightness and juicy fruit character that gives the wine its easy-going, drink-now appeal.

The palate is smooth, supple and full of crunchy red berry fruit, balanced by soft spice and a light savoury edge. Tannins are fine and approachable, making the wine immediately enjoyable from the first glass, while the fresh acidity keeps everything lively and moreish.

Relaxed, energetic and full of personality, this is a beautifully drinkable Rhône red made for sharing, casual dinners and enjoying young while its vibrant fruit is at its best.
