WINE DESCRIPTION
Château Flotis Si Noire is a wine crafted from a small, prized parcel of Négrette vines, perched on the highest point of the estate. The terroir, composed of gravel soils and sheltered by oak woodlands, contributes to the purity and intensity of the fruit. With a low yield, the grapes are handled with care, de-stemmed, and fermented. A six-week maceration with regular remontage and pigeage enhances extraction. After 18 months in seasoned oak barrels, the wine is bottled unfiltered, preserving its natural character and depth.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This wine is known for its deep, dark color and intense aromas.On the nose, you can expect to find notes of black fruits, such as blackberry and black cherry, along with hints of spice and oak. The palate is full-bodied and velvety, with well-integrated tannins and a rather long finish. Château Flotis Si Noire is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has aging potential for the next 4-5 years. It pairs beautifully with hearty dishes.
