Description
The Miquel family have been farming vines in the Languedoc hills for eight generations. Laurent Miquel and his Irish wife, Neasa, are the current custodians of the land, marrying over 200 years of tradition with a rebellious, innovative approach to winemaking. La Gauphine Merlot is dominated by bright plummy fruit with underlying hints of bramble and spice. The tannins are soft and supple and overall palate has a freshness that makes this a versatile food style of southern French red.
