$68.00
This product is currently sold out.
Banyuls wines are produced from intense, extremely ripe Grenache Noir that is fortified at around 8% with a neutral grape spirit. Akin to Port in some respects, these wines however, are lower in alcohol and much ‘finer’, fresher and balanced. True Mediterranen treasures. ‘Tradition’ is a NV wine that goes through many years
of oxidative ageing in various barrels. The current vintage of Tradition has components blended back to 2008. Match with cured meats, nuts and cheeses.
"There is a lot going on here in this oxidative style of Banyuls. Dried figs, dates, kirsch and notes of caramel and dark chocolate combine with fine elegance and persistence. Tannins have fully integrated after 5 years in oak foudres and finishes with a fine medicinal finish." - Matt Stubbs MW, Tim Atkin Langedoc Report
