Description

Bufadors Corpinnat 'Vinya del Rascara' Brut Nature 2018A pure Xarel lo from a massal selection of Recaredos fabled Turo dEn Mota vineyard planted in 1999.

gently tannic palate offers darkly spiced fruit and a firm sense of minerality

this is deeply mineral Carignan that flirts with downright elegance

precise fruit—a fully formed and utterly gorgeous aromatic profile even at this youthful stage

as one would expect from the variety

this 16-hectare vineyard was acquired by the Amoreau family (owners of Le Puy for over 400 years) in the early 2010s

“Les Foux” is a méthode traditionnelle sparkling rosé comprised of 100% Cabernet Franc from 30-year-old vines surrounding their 16th century chateau in the village of Thouars

and complexity

and the palate displays unabashed intensity

yet there is more finesse and purity
