Cedary and herbal with lots of acidity and tannin on the palate of this very young, medium-bodied French red wine. A little stemmy. Pair with roast chicken. Decant 1 hour.

Food pairings: beef sliders, slow-cooked lamb or spicy meatballs.

Remarkable Roast Chicken Wine

Reviews and Ratings

Olivier de Maisonneuve rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Surprising nose of roasted peanuts,dill and pumpernickel bread
Mouth is typical Savoie freshness and red cherry. Not for cabs lovers but happy spring wine.
To pair with chicken and maybe marinara pasta. Or maybe smoked meat sandwich!
Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

A rustic red wine made from the Mondeuse grape (extended cousin of Syrah) in the Savoie region of France. Prominent notes include candied berry and spice. Acidity is tart and mouthatering acidity while tannins are moderately grippy. Enjoy this rare wine (to our Ontario market) with hard cheeses. Tasted Feb 2017 by @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca
Sharon Lécuyer rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Leather on the nose. Medium-bodied, with blackberry and peppery flavours with a lingering finish. Pair with slow roasted meats or stews with roasted root vegetable.
Sylvain Segard reviewed this wine as follows:

The bottle i sampled had cork taint. No Score. (S.Segard, Reviewed March 26, 2017)
Dan Carkner reviewed this wine as follows:

A wine from an appellation seldom seen in our market, this mondeuse (a relative of Syrah) has aromas of plum and raspberry, roasted red pepper, and lots of black pepper. Dark cherry in colour and quite clear, the palate confirms a tartness that leans towards acetic qualities and flavours of tart cherry and ripe berries provide a perception of sweetness. Medium light in body, with low tannins, this wine is quite drinkable now but has the acidity to age a few more years yet.
From the Savoie wine region, Jean Perrier & Fils Cuvée Gastronomie Mondeuse Savoie (2015) is black cherry licorice and fresh cracked pepper on the nose and palate. Mondeuse is an ancient wine grape long-associated with Savoie, which lies east of Beaujolais at the Swiss border. Recent DNA profiling has determined that Mondeuse is a close relative of Syrah and a fine match for grilled lamb. - Community Wine Reviews
