Log in / Sign up La Java des Grandes Espérances Rouge 2019
In the heart of Touraine, in the village of Mesland, lies a wine estate unlike any other. Under family ownership for many years, the estate was completely redesigned and given a new name by Arnaud and Laurent Saget from the 2010 vintage. Contemporary and forward-looking, the Domaine des Grandes Espérances is currently in organic conversion. Although work on the estate is inspired by reason, pleasure is very much at its heart. The wines are generous, festive, and full of charm and promise. The aptly named Domaine des Grandes Espérances is certainly one of the impressive expectations.
Blend of Gamay 60% (light, soft fruity flavour), Malbec 20% (dark fruit, well-balanced), and Cabernet Franc 20% (robust, well-balanced). The grapes come from mature vines picked during the last week of October 2018.
Charcuterie, terrines and patés . Lightly chilled it can be a really useful pairing for fish, especially grilled tuna or salmon.
With a pretty ruby colour, La Java red from Grandes Espérances develops very fruity aromas of very ripe red fruit (strawberry, raspberry, etc) that, on the palate, blend with slightly spicy. A very delicious, smooth, and well-structured wine with nice smooth tannin.
