AperitifChickenCold Salads
Nestled between Béziers and Agde, at the heart of the Languedoc, Domaine Preignes le Vieux has been making wine for five generations. Situated on the Roman remains of the “Villa Preixanum,” which dates back to the year 118 BC, the remains of the amphoras have been excavated, proving how far back the winemaking tradition in Pregnes goes.
Tasting Notes
On the nose, aromas and flavours of ripe, red berry fruit. On the palate, more red fruit with some added minerality and lively, pleasant acidity. Use as an aperitif, pair with chicken dishes, or serve alongside your favourite summer salad.
Method
Made from a blend of Grenache, Cinsault, and Merlot, the grapes come from vines grown on clay and gravel soils. Colour extraction happens from 8 hours of skin contact.

A very good wine at this price point. Nicely balanced; not too dry, not too sweet. Moderate acidity without the bite. I bought a case. 🙂 Went well with chicken and leek pie in filo pastry. Also hard and soft cheeses like Brie, Comte and Gruyere.
