Flavour Profile
A deliciously moreish red wine from a fourth-generation family estate, Cuvée Prestigieux embodies the rich fruit and power that the Rhóne Valley is known for.
In 1911, Laurent Guillot’s great-grandfather left his birthplace of Burgundy and headed south to the Rhône valley. There he bought his first vineyard. Today, Lauren is in charge, working the family plots both in Burgundy, as well as in the southern Rhône.
For this voluptuous Villages red, he combined parcels of premium quality Grenache and Syrah grapes from some of their oldest vines, as well as a splash of Mourvèdre. The Grenache is from between Orange and Avignon, close to Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the soils of which produce a powerful, full-bodied style. The Syrah is from clay-limestone soils on the Rhône’s right bank, lending a silky, fresh-fruit note.
Add in the quality of the vintage and this red is rich, dark and intense. A great wine to serve with roast lamb or a rich casserole.
