Leonor

Ventoux 80% Grenache And 20% Syrah

If you're looking to explore a fascinating red blend that captures the spirit of the Southern Rhône, Cascavel Leonor is a must-try. Predominantly composed of Grenache with a touch of Syrah, this Ventoux gem offers a symphony of flavors that will both delight and engage your palate. The Grenache provides a lush, fruit-forward profile, brimming with ripe red berries and hints of blackcurrant, while the Syrah adds layers of complexity with notes of spice and a subtle smokiness. The wine's body is wonderfully balanced — not too light, yet not overpoweringly full, making it a versatile choice for a variety of dishes. Its acidity is refreshingly bright, providing a satisfying mouthwatering sensation. Tannins are present but elegantly soft, lending structure without overwhelming the fruit flavors. This careful blend is a lovely representation of the Ventoux region, demonstrating the winemaking prowess and the unique terroir that this area is celebrated for. Try it with roasted meats or a hearty Mediterranean dish to fully appreciate its food-friendly nature.
