Aubert & Mathieu Marie Antoinette Corbières has a tasty nose, with scents of toast and fresh red fruit. Marie Antoinette is a mild Corbière wine that takes you off the beaten track. In the mouth, in addition to the black fruit, you will find plums and a hint of peppermint. Maybe that's why the mint green on the label? The wine certainly has tannin for some grip! A subtle balance between red fruit, spices and menthol.
The perfect match with veggie burrito, stuffed tomatoes, veal blanquette.
Aubert & Mathieu Marie Antoinette Corbières is a delicious French organic Languedoc wine from Domaine Aubert & Mathieu from France. This red wine is made from Grenache grapes.
Recommended serving temperature between 16°C and 18°C.
Aubert and Mathieu have been friends since their school days. They challenged themselves to create a range of wines according to their ideas. As natives of Languedoc Roussillon, they wanted to shake up the image of Languedoc wines by bringing a touch of originality and modernity to their cuvées. They were founded in 2018 and work environmentally conscious, transparent and sustainable. They make mostly organic cuvées.
The creative couple received, among other things, the Best Design prize for their labels in the prestigious magazine Harpers Wine & Spirits. But the wines themselves also stood out. For example, their Corbieres “Marie-Antoinette” achieved a score of 18/20 in the magazine Terre de Vins and closer to home, their Kate Sauvignon Blanc was selected by KLM for the business class arrangement.
The Corbières wine region is located in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of southern France, specifically in the Aude department in the foothills of the Pyrenees. It is one of the largest wine-producing areas in the world, with a total vineyard area of more than 13,500 hectares.
The region has a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild winters. The vineyards are planted on rugged hillsides with a variety of soils including limestone, slate and sandstone.
Corbières wines are known for their full and fruity character, with aromas of red and dark fruit, spices and herbs. They are often described as having a rustic quality and are known for their ability to age well.
