30+ year old Rivesaltes from Marc Pracé is a "must" for the festive season. It is made from a cocktail of Grenache banc & gris and Macabeu is is aged colheita in the barrel until ready. As always, it had that typical light golden pink tinged colour and light/medium body. Seamless and ethereally subtle with its cherry and rose tinged fruit, nuts, gentle sweetness, perfectly balanced acidity, it had enough backbone to pair well with Stilton cheese and was perfect with a chocolate dessert. Excellent.
