Domaine Montrozier - IGP Aveyron - Calibre 12 - Rouge - 2021

Wine:

Straightforward and full of charm, the 2021 Red IGP Aveyron Calibre 12 is all about vibrant, mouthwatering flavour. A blend of crunchy Gamay, peppery Syrah, and the local Mansois grape (also known as Fer Servadou), it delivers a lively mix of red fruit flavours—fresh cherry, raspberry, and a hint of redcurrant—lifted by notes of violet, spice, and a refreshing touch of red pepper. Harvested at just 12% alcohol and fermented with native yeasts, it’s light, juicy, and incredibly easy to drink. A joyful wine to open at the start of a meal with terrine or dry-cured sausage.
