Production Notes
Domaine DELEUZE-ROCHETIN - Pays d'Oc - 'Saba' BlendFruity & 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.
