Tasting Notes
Produced with fruit from selected locations in the Rhone Valley and Languedoc, the 2020 Reserve Pierre presents the full power of the Costieres de Nimes. The wine is deep dark red with expressive aromas of berries, cinnamon and floral notes. The promise of an explosion of flavours does not disappoint and the ripe red fruit is harmoniously balanced with a finish of vanilla and spice. Full bodied, velvety and round, this vintage offers a supple and delicious palate with a welcome note of freshness.
"Very pretty floral scent aromas. Generous flavours of black cherry and blackcurrant. Approachable easy drinking style. Very classic Costieres de Nimes wine."

The Producer
Vignerons Propriétés Associés
Vignerons Proprietes Associes (VPA) is a renowned wine estate located in the heart of the Languedoc region in southern France. Founded in 1985 by a group of winegrowers, the estate covers over 300 hectares of vineyards, producing a wide range of high-quality wines.
The owner of VPA is Eric Fabre, a highly respected figure in the wine industry. Fabre brings years of experience and expertise to the estate, having worked as a winemaker at Château Lafite Rothschild and Château Margaux before joining VPA in 2003. Fabre has been instrumental in elevating the estate's wines to new heights, receiving numerous accolades and awards.

VPA's vineyards are situated in the hilly and rocky terrain of the Languedoc region, with an ideal Mediterranean climate that allows for optimal grape ripening. The estate's terroir is characterized by limestone and clay soils, which impart a unique minerality to the wines.
VPA has received numerous awards and recognition for its wines, including several medals at the prestigious Decanter World Wine Awards and the International Wine Challenge. VPA uses a natural composting technique to enrich the soil, which is said to contribute to the distinctive character of their wines.
