Jean Perrier et Fils, Mondeuse, Savoie, France
- 100% Mondeuse
- Savoie is a mountainous region in the far east of France, bordering Switzerland.
- Mondeuse is a black grape native to Savioe, a region in Eastern France. Mondeuse is often compared to Syrah for both grapes share a similarly deep color and signature peppery notes. Despite the similarities, the two grapes are not related.
- Mondeuse wines are typically noted for their well-structured acidity. The grape is innately higher in acid and Savioe is relatively cool, which further preserves the acid. These wines are also noted for their well-integrated tannins and slight bitterness.
- Tasting Notes: This is an interesting light-medium body with plush tannins and balanced notes of earth and fruit. The most pronounced notes are of ripe black cherries and earth with underlying notes of savory herbs.
