Product Notes

Domaine Breton Grolleau is a tantalising French red wine, crafted in the Loire Valley. Produced from the rare Grolleau grape variety, it is marked by a velvety richness and distinctive fruitiness. Its bouquet captivates you with lush notes of red berries, dark cherries, and a whisper of earthy undertones, wrapped in a mildly spicy aroma. On the palate, it is refreshingly soft yet vibrant, showcasing perfectly balanced acidity and delightful lightness, making it an excellent accompaniment for a wide range of cuisines. A sip of the Domaine Breton Grolleau offers a truly memorable journey into the heart of finest French winemaking.

Tasting Notes

Aromatic style: Classic easy-drinking wine with aromas of red berries. (We vinify using carbonic maceration to exalt the strawberry red fruit notes.)
