Domaine de Trevallon Rouge 2020

Tasting Notes

A cult wine among wine lovers. Trevallon is about as unique as they come. An unheard blend of Shiraz and Cabernet from Provence. The tale goes that Trevallon had these wines planted before the Provence appellation was created for Mourvedre, Grenache and Cinsault, yet Trevallon was not allowed to be a part of it and would not pull his vines out. So, the result was keeping with his terroir and his "unusual" grape varieties and bottling his wine under Vin de Pays. It's this story and his resilience that has pushed this wine into its current cult status. Drinks more like a great Bordeaux, but it is very Trevallon. Age-worthy and structured. - Chris L
