Soil Grape & Sun : Awarded by Gilbert & Gaillard
We are pleased to receive the first prize in the Gilbert & Gaillard wine competition for our Soil Grape and Sun 2018 and 2019 vintages. All of them received a score of 87/100 with a delicious tasting commentary.
Soil Grape and Sun is a brand with the particularity of offering three different wines from the Pays d’Oc, which are 100% Syrah, 100% Merlot and 100% Cabernet-Sauvignon.
PURPLE = 100% SYRAH
Deep-hued with ruby reflections. Distinctive nose driven by crushed blackcurrant, blackberry jam, peony and pepper. The palate shows youthfulness with a very crunchy, juicy fruit core and supple, energetic mouthfeel. A very familiar, friendly Syrah.
YELLOW = 100% CABERNET-SAUVIGNON
Concentrated, dark color tinged with dark purple. Very floral, heady nose of peony and iris with red and black berry notes. Concentrated with sensual, sappy fruit. This is a satisfying Cabernet offering seductive freshness, juiciness and a mineral edge on the finish.
ORANGE = 100% MERLOT
Deep color displaying mature garnet. Delicate nose driven by blackberry, wild strawberry and violet. Very supple, crisp palate with incredibly energetic, lively fruit and lingering juiciness. An indulgent Merlot for sharing over a barbecue.
