Maury – Padri One – Clos des Vins d’Amour - 50cl - 2023
Grape varieties: 100% Grenache Noir
Features :
The Padri One 2023, by Clos des Vins d'Amour, is a naturally sweet wine that blends power and sensuality in a perfectly mastered balance. Its deep cherry red color with purple highlights announces remarkable intensity. The nose opens with a medley of black and red fruits—blackcurrant, blackberry, redcurrant—enriched with notes of sweet spices and dried fruits. On the palate, the attack is rich, almost velvety, with great aromatic richness: candied strawberry, subtle cocoa, and licorice unfold harmoniously. The powerful yet silky tannins bring structure and depth to this generous wine. Aging in a climate-controlled cellar preserves its freshness and intensifies its complexity.
Food and Wine Pairings:
A perfect accompaniment to dark chocolate fondant, a red fruit tart, or even game in a strong sauce. Also a great aperitif, with aged blue cheese, coffee, or a cigar. Serve slightly chilled (14–16°C) to fully appreciate its richness.
The Estate:
Clos des Vins d'Amour is a family estate located in the heart of the Agly Valley, between Maury, Tautavel, and Saint-Paul-de-Fenouillet. Nestled on three diverse terroirs—black schist, clay-limestone, and clay-schist—the estate practices hand-picking and traditional vinification, with mutage sur grains for its naturally sweet wines. This method, similar to that of Port, preserves the grapes' natural sweetness. The estate produces characterful, expressive, and sincere vintages that faithfully reflect its preserved environment and artisanal approach.
