Amber Rivesaltes, aged for a minimum of two years in an oxidative environment in large containers (oak barrels or barrels). With a beautiful dark golden or amber color, they are distinguished by their scents of hazelnut, almond, walnut, candied citrus fruits and toasted notes. These wines can be very old without losing their potency. The wine matured in barrels for over 50 years before being bottled in small batches.
The appellation takes its name from the town of the same name, Rives Hautes, whose name means "high benches" in Catalan. The vineyard extends over just over 8,000 hectares of terraces and hills, crossed by three rivers that have shaped the relief. Rivesaltes was very successful in the 1930s, to the extent that it was one of the first French wines to achieve controlled appellation status in 1936. A few years later, the War Troubles period got the better of this craze. However, for some time now, like Sauternes and other noble sweet wines, we have seen a return to old bottles of natural sweet wines: the method of making the wines guarantees them an incomparable longevity, and yet the prices remain incredibly low.
