Description

Ascaïr is a legend of a magnificent beast celebrated in the Tarascon festivals. The monster wears many faces drawn from Provençal folklore and the heritage of Côtes du Rhône. This Côtes du Rhône Villages wine is made from Grenache and Syrah grapes grown in the heart of the Papes enclave, in Valréas. The unique geographical location offers exceptional climate conditions that give this wine its structure, complexity, and remarkable freshness. Traditional vinification brings depth and color, with a 30-day maceration and 6 months of aging in French oak barrels.
