2022 Dumanet Cabernet Sauvignon

The Dumanet wines are the house wines in a number of star restaurants. As a condition for being allowed to carry these wines, we are not allowed to release the names of these restaurants, but these are sounding names and we can actually understand that people like to work with Dumanet wines because the quality is very good, the price is very attractive and the style in which the wines are made means that this is highly appreciated by almost everyone.

The Cabernet Sauvignon grape has now gained a strong foothold in the Languedoc. It always takes some time to find the right substrate, but in places with poorer soil this grape ripens under almost ideal conditions. The grapes come from vineyards around the cities of Narbonne, Beziers and Montpellier. The climate here is warm enough to allow the cabernet skins to ripen properly, so that the wine from this classic Bordeaux grape has a wonderfully round and supple character. It is made on its fruit, with a lot of strength and nice flexibility. Classic, yet beautifully ripe and soft. A successful example of what the Pays d'Oc has to offer in terms of tasty red.

The Dumanet Cabernet Sauvignon has an intense cherry red color in the glass with notes of plums, blueberries and black cherries, jam, sultry, smoky, coffee, beautifully fruity in the nose. In the mouth the wine is intense and powerful, ripe and sultry, polished, chocolate, full and intense, creamy final with a little pepper. We recommend drinking this wine at around 16 degrees.

FACT : The label depicts 2 men cycling, reminiscent of the beautiful bike rides through the vineyards. In the past, the winemaker cycled through the vineyards with the thought of one day turning them into a top wine, well, he succeeded so many years later.
