L’Apogee 2016 from Saint Chinian is a remarkable wine reflecting its terroir’s essence. Crafted by Michel Cazevieille and Sebastien Roubichou, it embodies their commitment to excellence. Situated at 180 meters altitude with southwestern exposure, the vineyard provides ideal conditions for exceptional grape quality. A blend of 70% Syrah and 30% Mourvedre, it harmonizes bold Syrah flavors of dark fruits and black pepper with Mourvedre’s richness of blackberries, earthiness, and herbs.

This wine boasts a rich, full-bodied texture with velvety tannins enveloping flavors of blackcurrants, plums, cedar, and tobacco. Its well-integrated oak adds vanilla and spice nuances, leading to a satisfying, lingering finish with impeccable balance and aging potential. Michel Cazevieille and Sebastien Roubichou’s dedication to their land and craftsmanship truly elevate L’Apogee 2016.

Pair L’Apogee 2016 with a hearty beef stew simmered with root vegetables and aromatic herbs. The wine’s rich and full-bodied character will beautifully complement the robust flavors of the stew, while its velvety texture will enhance the overall dining experience.
