Domaine Guilhem Barré – Natürlicher Mystiker

Presentation of Domaine Guilhem Barré - Natural Mystic

You want to discover Cabardès , we have selected the vintage that sublimates this appellation: Natural Mystic from Domaine Guilhem Barré . Purple in color, the red fruit is the protagonist of this deep nose rich in spicy nuances. Powerful on the palate, with a fruity tension of grapefruit. Finish of overwhelming freshness. The tannins are very fine and will ensure good aging potential. A nice nod to Bob Marley for the name of this vintage.

HISTORY OF THE DOMAIN

Since 2008, Guilhem Barré has worked tirelessly to translate the Carcassonne terroir into the language of wine. His company is located more precisely in Ventenac-Cabardès, a small town in Languedoc, and is developing at the foot of the Montagne Noire mountains, located in the extreme southwest of the Massif Central. Guilhem inaugurates his agricultural and life project, starting immediately with an organic viticultural approach, now adopted on approximately 6.5 hectares of vines, which benefit from significant organic contributions to the terroir. Located in the Cabardès appellation, in a windy region that is at the crossroads of two climatic universes, the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. The company mainly cultivates Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Grenache grape varieties, vinified using spontaneous fermentation.

Grilled meat, barbecued beef ribs, game, poultry. Spicy dishes will go very well with it.
