The Madiran Rouge Vieilles Vignes from Domaine Labranche Laffont is a red wine full of vigor and depth, originating from the hills of southwestern France. Made exclusively with grapes harvested from old vines, this wine reflects the true essence of Tannat, the dominant grape variety in the blend, occasionally enriched with small percentages of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.

The uniqueness of this Madiran lies in the use of ancient vines, which confer superior concentration and complexity to the wine. The partial aging in barrels achieves a stunning balance between power and finesse. Its color is deeply ruby with purplish reflections. On the nose, intense aromas of dark fruits, such as blackberries and plums, emerge, accompanied by spicy notes and subtle hints of vanilla and chocolate derived from barrel aging.

On the palate, the Madiran Rouge Vieilles Vignes showcases a robust body with well-structured tannins and persistent freshness. The finish is long and enveloping, with a return of the fruit and spice notes perceived on the nose.

This wine pairs beautifully with rich dishes, such as roasted red meats, stews, and aged cheeses. It is also an excellent candidate for aging, promising to evolve magnificently in the cellar over the coming years.
