Cuvee des Galets Estezargues, lovely little natural red from the southern Rhone. Les Vignerons d'Estezargues make superb natural wines oozing southern french character and natural freshness. Les Galets Rouge is a blend of Grenache, Syrah and Carignan, fermented cool with natural yeast and bottled without filtration. Sourced from organic and biodynamic (not exclusively) vineyards, Les Galets Rouge explodes with plump juicy berry fruit, liquorice and spice. A delicious wine from the fantastic team at Les Vignerons d Estezargues, serve with Soupe au Pistou, Charcuterie and cheese. For us at Buon Vino, this is our go to bottle of house red midweek, low in sulphur but rich in flavour, character and freshness, it shows that naturally made real wine doesn't have to be expensive and it goes with everything, simple piece of grilled fish, serves slightly chilled or even a big steak, dead versatile.
This super little co-op works according to the principles of Terra Vitis using no chemical treatments other than a little sulphur. The grape blends vary, but usually feature Grenache (roughly 50%) with Syrah and Carignan in equal measure. Very much a natural wine with no filtering or fining.
