100% Marselan, Cellier des Chartreux
We’re big fans of unsung grape varieties and Marselan is one such grape. ?It was developed in the sixties as a hybrid of Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache, with the intention of producing a high yield, low character table wine. ?It failed. ?It turned out much more interesting than that. ?It’s a low yielding, disease resistant grape that lends itself to low-intervention farming and makes powerful, leathery, herbal wines. ?If you’re looking for something different, look no further.
