Domaine DELEUZE-ROCHETIN - Pays d'Oc - 'Saba' Blend
Fruity & bold, this everyday red blend has character.
Nose that opens to red and black fruit, black liquorice.
Fine and silky texture of pepper and spiced notes on the palate.
The 2015 vintage is a blend of syrah (25%), merlot (25%), cabernet franc (25%) and cabernet sauvignon (25%). These are the first black grapes harvested in the season to preserve a certain freshness.
The juice issued from the short maceration and a mild extraction end the fermentation in a liquid phase at a low temperature.
Serve at 17ºC and allow the wine to breath before serving.
Saba is a wine to open all year long, its lightness allows it many pairings.
Beef skewers/grilled peppers, lamb kefta, seared Bluefin tuna, soja sauce, lamb tajine with prunes. This "easy" red is lovely to share with friends.
A slight deposit of crystals is a natural phenomenon.
