With packaging influenced by old advertising ephemera, Pierre et Papa’s nostalgic feel is very much in tune with the desire to seek out honest value. From approximately 40 year old vines planted at around 5000 vines per hectare on selected plots across the Pays d'Herault region. In this sunny corner of France grapes can ripen to full maturity and express great varietal character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness, destemmed and divided into two lots. One undergoes the modern process of hot skin contact maceration. After that, the juice goes through cool temperature fermentation in stainless steel tanks. This procedure is carried out in order to extract and enhance the varietal’s aromatic qualities. The other lot is fermented traditionally on their skins for about ten days adding structure to the wine. At the end of the winemaking process both the modern and the traditional section are blended to a youthful and easy drinking wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"title\"\u003eTasting Note: A velvety smooth red wine full of luscious blackcurrant and spicy liquorice flavours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"title\"\u003eFood match: Classic French bistro dishes and hearty stews.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-sm-12\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pierre et Papa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43137093042250,"sku":"F154401241","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2140\/3211\/files\/PP_Red_4857.png?v=1766069050"},{"product_id":"2022-natte-valleij-swallow-copy","title":"2023 Natte Valleij Swallow","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAlex Milner tells me that this is the wine they started with.
