Chateau Perdrias
Reserve 2022 | Languedoc
"Mediterranean power with French elegance: a tribute to the richness of Southern France, capturing the soul of a sun-drenched terroir."
The Character of Southern France
The Chateau Perdrias Reserve 2022 is a generous and enveloping expression of Languedoc-Roussillon. This blend of Syrah and Grenache comes from vineyards with privileged sun exposure on clay-limestone soils, which gives it exceptional ripeness. Its aging in wood during the Reserve selection provides a complexity of sweet spices and toasty notes that perfectly balance its robust fruity structure, resulting in a full-bodied red with warmth and a persistently elegant finish.

2. Sommelier's Notes
Appearance: Intense, deep garnet red color, medium-high intensity, with elegant ruby reflections on the rim.
Nose: Complex and layered bouquet. Prominent black forest fruits (blackberry, cranberry), followed by herbal notes of thyme, black pepper, and a subtle background of cocoa, coffee, and Mediterranean spices.
Palate: Broad, fleshy, and enveloping entry. Presents tannins that are present but polished by its aging. Long and warm finish that leaves lingering notes of ripe fruit, licorice, and the characteristic freshness of the French "garrigue."
