The Big Beltie Cabernet Sauvignon requires perfectly ripe grapes to show its full potential. They look for the right moment for the harvest of each particular vineyard, ensuring perfect maturity. The grapes are destemmed, crushed and then sent to maceration for about ten weeks. Approximately one third of the blend is aged with half-toasted French oak which adds complexity to the wine.
Rich and deep red, this wine showcases ripe blackcurrant and cassis fruit. Subtle smoke and pepper notes follow. You'll find ripe tannins and a savoury coffee note with a delicate hint of oak. Try with steak, roast beef, hearty stews and mushroom dishes.
The producer, Frederic Garrabou was born in the small village of Limoux, situated amongst the Languedoc vineyards. His father and both his grandfathers were vine growers, and he grew up immersed in the vineyards, assisting his father from a young age. The cultivation of vines has always captivated him, as he believes that the finest wines are crafted in the vineyard.
