The Banyuls Grand Cru Baillaury from Abbe Rous is a fortified wine from the South of France, specifically from the Roussillon region. Fascinating and complex, this wine is primarily created with Grenache grapes, which are left to overripen on the trees to increase their sugar concentration. After fermentation, the wine undergoes a fortification process followed by aging for at least 30 months in oak barrels, which contributes to developing its deep layers of aromas and flavors.
In the glass, the Banyuls Baillaury reveals an intense ruby red color with amber reflections. On the nose, it offers a rich bouquet of dark chocolate, dried plums, coffee, and sweet spices like cinnamon and vanilla. On the palate, it is enveloping and velvety, highlighting flavors consistent with the nose, enriched by a touch of walnut and candied orange, leading towards a persistent and harmonious finish.
Ideal as a meditation wine, it pairs perfectly with chocolate desserts, aged cheeses, or on its own as a post-meal drink. A wine that offers an overwhelming oenological experience, celebrating the winemaking tradition of Banyuls.
