Flavor Profile
Cabernet Sauvignon might be one of the great grapes of Bordeaux, but you’ll also find top-value examples in southern France. With a winemaking tradition dating back to Roman times, Comté Tolosan has a rich oenological history. If you’ve yet to try one of the region’s lovely wines, gold-medal Prestige de Mireval Cabernet Sauvignon will be a delicious introduction.
Talented winemaker Nicole McPheeters (below) is a real rising star, with a Master of Viticulture & Enology from the University of Adelaide’s Roseworthy Campus. Nicole selected the beautifully ripe Cab grapes from a vineyard overlooking the river Tarn. The river’s moderating influence helped the grapes retain freshness, while the sunny Mediterranean climate aided in the development of intense fruit flavors.
Back in the winery, Nicole treated the Cab to a full year in oak barrels, imparting toasty spice to the ripe cherry, blackberry and savory herb notes. For the final touch, Nicole named the wine Prestige de Mireval (Mireval meaning ‘one who overlooks the valley’ in the Occitan dialect) after its beautiful homeland.
One sip of this fine Cabernet and you’ll understand why it boasts a history of gold-medal acclaim. Order your share today and prepare to enjoy it alongside barbecue, game meats or hearty stews.
