The wine opens with an enticing bouquet that features ripe red apples, Bosc pears, honeydew melon, and delicate floral notes of gardenias, all beautifully complemented by a subtle hint of oyster shells. On the palate, the wine reveals energetic acidity that enhances its concentrated, mineral-rich character. The flavor profile includes nuances of caramel and toffee apple, intertwined with freshly cut grass, culminating in a dry, savory, and fruity finish. This wine offers a full-bodied sensation in the mouth, supported by a vibrant acidity that contributes to an elegantly long finish. This blend comprises 50% Grenache Gris, 40% Grenache Blanc, and 10% Macabeu, sourced from 75 to 90-year-old bush vines planted in clay and limestone soils. The wine undergoes fermentation and is aged for nine months in three different types of old oak barrels, which adds depth and complexity to its flavor profile. Les Enfants Sauvages "Cool Moon" is best served chilled and pairs beautifully with grilled prawns, white fish, and dishes featuring green or white asparagus, making it a versatile choice for summer dining.
