Domaine Grosbois 'La Cuisine De Ma Mere En Vacances a Gaillac' Rouge 2019 France

Syrah, Merlot, Braucol, Duras

Chinon, Loire Valley, France

The Grosbois estate, which has been in the family since 1820, sits squarely in the Loire Valley, which means Chinon country for reds. But after losing 80% of his 2016 harvest in the Loire, Nicolas Grosbois took his 'Cuisine de ma mère', his classic Chinon, on vacation in Southwest France to borrow some organic grapes from a friend there. And thus, his glou-glou cuvée made from Duras, Braucol, Merlot and Syrah (the typical spicy, dense grapes of the Gaillac region) was born.
