Clos de la Barthassade Pur C (Cinsault) 2023

A bright and graceful expression of pure Cinsault from the Languedoc, Clos de la Barthassade Pur C 2023 is made from hand-harvested vines averaging 35 years old, grown on limestone-scree terraces in Montpeyroux. Crafted organically and following biodynamic rhythms, this red is vinified using natural yeasts, gentle gravity-fed extraction, and 85% de-stemmed fruit. It spends eight months maturing, mostly in stainless steel with a splash of barrel aging, for freshness and purity.

Vibrant and juicy, Pur C opens with redcurrant, strawberry, raspberry, and elderberry aromas, framed by subtle floral and spice nuances. The palate is delicate and refreshing, with soft tannins, a crisp texture, and a light, lively finish, especially enjoyable when slightly chilled. Pair it with light grilled dishes, seasonal salads, or even fruit-based desserts for a beautifully versatile, easy-drinking red.
