About this bottle
Héritage An 1130 Cité de Carcassonne Rouge originates from Carcassonne in the south of France. The Mediterranean climate, warm with maritime influence, enables the merlot grapes to preserve a certain freshness of flavour.
Harvesting takes place at full maturity. Then the wine undergoes traditional vinification before being aged in barrels.
“An 1130” is a reference to the year the first fortification of the Cité de Carcassonne was built. The fort is a medieval monument classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
