Not only the label of our Cuvée Vieilles Vignes resembles that of our Viognier but also the description. This red wine is very concentrated and full of scent. You smell the aromas of dark fruit such as cherries, blackberries and dried plums. But the scents of vanilla and a bit of oak are also clearly recognizable. The Cuvée Vieilles Vignes develops slowly and becomes more and more delicious. This wine is a nice accompaniment to various meat dishes and it also tastes delicious with a Dutch cheese platter.
