  • Roquebrun Seigneur d'Aupenac (Magnum)

Roquebrun Seigneur d'Aupenac (Magnum) 2017

Saint-Chinian-Roquebrun AOC
Loading...
Roquebrun Seigneur d'Aupenac (Magnum) 2017
Rare opportunity to get this limited edition, fine red with 6 years' maturity. And in magnum. Roquebrun is one of two standout crus of Saint-Chinian. So good, its top wine matures magnificently for years. Ripe cassis, damson and long savoury spice.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.

But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.

The Wine
It's not often that truly great wines drop into a wine merchant's lap. Stationed in southern France, our buyer, Mark, heard rumour that magnums of the top wine from the great Roquebrun cellar were being sold off. That wine is the superb, limited-edition Seigneur d'Aupenac. Every vintage, this small premium village cellar, with its fine schist soils and high, southfacing slopes, holds back a few hundred magnums for use in shows and dinners. With the departure of Alain, their award-winning winemaker, the cellar agreed to sell the back vintages and Mark, without hesitation, said we'd take the lot. Made from finest, low-yielding Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre, the 2017 is silky and long with damson, herbs and savoury spice. Decant early or age.

These magnums are the finest examples of this style that I have ever enjoyed. Collector’s items
