Xavier Rasteau

2012 Rasteau Red Blend

The Xavier Vignon Xavier Rasteau is a striking red blend from the renowned Rasteau region, showcasing the essence of Southern Rhône. This vintage offers a full-bodied experience, with a robust structure supported by firm tannins that impart a sense of strength and depth. The wine's brightness is complemented by high acidity, which lifts the rich flavors and adds an overall refreshing quality to each sip. Prominent fruit intensity presents notes of dark berries intertwined with subtle hints of spice and earthiness, creating a harmonious and captivating profile. As a dry wine, it invites exploration, perfectly pairing with hearty dishes or enjoyed on its own for an exceptional tasting experience.
