Grenache 2024 Le Paradou

What kind of wine is it?

Grenache by Le Paradou is a red wine made from Grenache grapes grown in the area between the Rhône Valley and Provence. It ferments and matures exclusively in steel and concrete tanks, a choice that preserves the fruity profile and a fresh, balanced character. The style is smooth and approachable, with medium body and immediate drinkability.

Where does it come from?

The grapes come from vineyards located between the Rhône Valley and Provence, on hilly slopes about 30 kilometers from the coast. The south-facing slopes favor consistent ripening and a clear fruit expression. The context, characterized by both inland and coastal influences, contributes to a style focused on balance and drinkability.

How is it produced?

After harvest, fermentation takes place in steel and concrete tanks, and maturation continues in the same materials, with no wood aging involved. This choice enhances the fruity notes of Grenache and keeps the profile clean and centered on freshness, smoothness, and an easy-drinking structure.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it appears clear ruby red. The nose reveals intense aromas of currant and cherry, with delicate, well-measured spice. On the palate, it is balanced and fresh, with perceptible smoothness and a harmonious sip; the finish, led by the fruit, invites another taste.

Food pairings

It’s a versatile red at the table, suited to cured meats and dishes of moderate structure. It pairs naturally with first courses and both white and red meats, supporting the flavors without overpowering or weighing them down, and keeping the drinking experience light.

When to serve

Perfect for occasions when an easy-drinking red is desired, fitting with everyday menus and informal dinners. The choice of fermentation and aging in steel and concrete shapes the profile towards immediacy and purity, ideal when you want a balanced and fresh glass that can accompany multiple courses without dominating.
