STORY BEHIND THE WINE

The Pujol estate sites around the foohills of Montagne Noire (Black Mountain) in the Languedoc. While this location may sound rather ominous, this producer's wines are quintessentially Mediterranean in flavour.
The Gaillard family have been farming this region since their great-great-grandfather, Louis Biscan, worked 5 hectares of vineyards and they now farm over 100 hectares.
With a wide range of wine and styles in their portfolio this Grand Reserve is Syrah-dominant, brooding and incredibly food-friendly.
