Description

Product description for Georg Meissner Vindemiatrix, Côtes des Catalanes 2014 (bio)

Wine Information

Vindemiatrix is only produced in special years. The name Vindemiatrix refers to the star in the zodiac sign of Virgo. To begin the grape harvest, the Romans waited for its appearance in the sky. Hence the Italian word for grape harvest, “vendemmia,” or “vendange” in French. Serrat de la Plane means “stony plateau” in Catalan, and this is also the name of the location of the two vineyards and the wine produced from these extreme locations, which was made from vines over 100 years old.

Colour

Muted violet red, delicate lightening towards the rim.

Nose

The 2014 Vindemiatrix enchants with wild and honest fruit: blackberries, mulberries, and blackcurrants mingle with rosemary and juniper. The refreshing and delicately cool fruit of wild sage and black olives underlines this wine. Delicate notes of graphite and charcoal lend this special wine from Georg Meissner additional finesse and complexity.

Palate

The palate confirms the freshness and delicacy of the Carignan, which also impresses with its firm structure and elegant coolness. Its juicy structure and low alcohol content make it an excellent food accompaniment, preferably with dishes of its origin.
