With grilled red meat : the “Longitude” red wine

Since summer is still lingering in the heart of our Provence region (at least until September 14th at our Bistro), Campuget’s “Longitude” wine can be paired with grilled red meat, thanks to this unique blend of the vineyard’s best terroirs, composed of 70% Grenache and 30% Syrah.

A journey to the heart of the South, both intense and refined, enhanced by oak aging.
