Grandes Espérances discovery 3 pack

-Wine 1: Les Roi Soleil 2016

The Roi Soleil (the Sun King) by Domaine Des Grandes Esperances is a skin contact (12hrs on skin) Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire Valley. Smooth and delicious. The grapes comes from a 30 year old vineyard plot growing on clay loam soil. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are hand picked under an early October sun, when fully ripe.

Wine with a superb, golden yellow sheen, hence its name. The Roi Soleil develops very complex exotic fruit, vanilla and acacia notes on the nose. Smooth and delicious on the palate, and blessed with very mineral, vibrant length.

-Wine 2: Les Ailes Pourpres 2015

Les Ailes Pourpres emerged on a beautiful October morning from a vineyard of Cabernet Franc planted on flint clay.Hand harvesting enabled us to select the finest Cabernet Franc grapes for this wine.

The wine, displaying a beautiful ruby red colour, opens on the nose with dark fruit and spices and finishes with a slight touch of vanilla or even liquorice. Well structured and elegant on the palate, this wine is perfectly balanced with a long, fresh finish.

-Wine 3: Supernova 2018

100% Malbec wine from a 30 year old vineyard plot growing on clay loam soil.

The wine displays a purple hue and is complex on the nose, with aromas of cherry, peony and spices, with a slight animal character. Lovely structure and “tight” yet fine tannins give this wine a nice, interesting finish.
