Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 (Vin de Pays d'Oc), varietal wine Vin de Pays d'Oc Red Wine 2008 vintage Limestone and clay alluvial deposits From individual parcels Cabernet sauvignon 11 year-old vines producing 68 hl/ha 100% Partly traditional maceration and partly cold pre-fermentation for 19 and 17 days with daily delestage (rack and return) or pumping over 13.5% vol. In vats for 6 months A fine example of this vintage for late-maturing varieties : this wine is deeply coloured and expressive, with cool and floral notes (a hint of rose), menthol, followed by fresh dark fruits and peppercorns. On the palate it is harmonious, very supple and refreshing due to the liquorice. Serve at 16°C as the perfect accompaniment to a wild asparagus omelette. 21st April 2009 3.000 bottles Available 2004 cab2004_en.xml 2005 cab2005_en.xml 2006 cab2006_en.xml 2007 cab2007_en.xml cres_ricards_cabernet_sauvignon.jpg cab2008_fr.xml Français To order this vintage in our eBay wine store!
