From our sommeliers
Peter Sichel's 'Cucuniano' is a balanced, distinctive mountain red wine that bears the historic name of the village of Cucugnan, where it is produced. The vineyards are surrounded by trees and the winery operates according to agroforestry principles, combining permaculture and biodynamics. It is a fresh and fragrant wine, with a profile shaped by vinification using whole bunches and ageing in cement and large barrels. The nose reveals fresh red fruits and wild strawberries. On the palate, it is round and elegant, with fine tannins and a freshness that accompanies a harmonious progression. It pairs well with braised meats and regional cuisine, such as boeuf bourguignon
