Terroir de Champal St Joseph 2009 Rocher

TASTING NOTES

  
This wine has a beautiful shiny and dark colour.  It is characterized by a rich aroma with intense concentration and a silky texture.  The flavors of jammy red fruit finely macerated evolve on pepper and licorice.  It combines the qualities of elegance and natural strength which will ensure a perfect aging.

 


BACKGROUND

 

This is in the village of Sarras, in Ardèche, on top of the granite slopes of St. Joseph that extends the twenty hectares of the Champal vineyard.  In a land of stones, which gives low yields, on benches landscape features of the right bank of the Rhone, the vine are generously exposed south / south-east.   The privileged location of the Champal vineyard is characterized by poor soil and microclimate with wind, where it is possible to practice a very rational culture of the vine in strict compliance with the natural balance.

 


FOOD MATCHING


This wine is a perfect accompaniment for any game meat, roasted meat, stewed meat and even grilled beef.   It goes perfectly with the duck confit or duck magret.  It is also associated with most cow and goat cheeses of character.
