Château Mont-Redon Vieux Marc Old Marc 700ml

Château Mont-Redon Vieux Marc is a cask-aged pomace brandy distilled from the skins of the estate's red Châteauneuf-du-Pape and bottled at 42%.

Château Mont-Redon is one of the largest single properties in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, around a hundred hectares on the high plateau north west of the village where the vineyard is carpeted in galets roulés, the rounded quartzite stones left there by the ice ages. It has been in the hands of the Abeille-Fabre family for four generations. A marc is distilled not from wine but from the pomace, the skins, pips and stalks left in the press after fermentation, which is worked soon after the harvest so that nothing of the crop is wasted. Here the pomace comes from the red blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault, which gives a fuller and more robust spirit, and the vieux designation means it has been left in wood long enough to take on colour and soften the edge of a young marc.

A warming digestif for the end of a long meal, good with a cigar or strong cheese; serve at room temperature in a small glass.
