Tasting Notes/Food Pairing Suggestions
Enticing aromas of red and black currants and a wonderful medium-ruby color. The unfolding layers of luscious red and black fruits are striking, and the wine has a long finish with a hint of nutmeg. With its bold fruit, medium weight, and moderate tannins, this wine will serve well both the casual cocktail drinker as well as the gourmet wine and food crowd.About the Name/Label
It is named after the grapegrowing/winemaking team of René Ours and Emmanuel Bouchard. The lavender image is integral to both their lives—wild lavender growing between René’s vineyards, and cultivated lavender that Emmanuel’s mother Nancy tends and harvests behind their home for making fine oils and perfumes. "Cuveé Classique" denotes the traditional local practice of not using any oak barrels in order for the flavors of the terroir to show their full expression.
