Domaine Kennel 2024
Organic Wine
A word from Cave de France: AOP Côtes de Provence, this lovely cuvée is vinified without barrel aging to preserve the fruit and drinkability. The wine comes from limestone, clay, and silty soils located at the foot of Pierrefeu-du-Var, a well-exposed Provençal terroir conducive to the creation of rich and complex wines.
This wine develops fruity aromas of raspberry and spices, especially cinnamon. Structured yet supple, it is best served at around 16°C, can be kept for 3 to 7 years, and pairs well with grilled prime rib, roasted lamb, well-aged cheeses, and Mediterranean cuisine in general.
Domaine Kennel is a family vineyard located in Pierrefeu-du-Var, in the Var region.
It spans approximately 38 hectares of vines on alluvial soil at the foot of the village, benefiting from excellent sunshine and soils rich in sediments.
The history of the estate is ancient: the property was once a dependency of the Abbey of Saint-Victor de Marseille for several centuries before being acquired by the Kennel family in 1932.
From 2005, the Kennel family committed to converting to biodynamics, affirming an approach of respecting nature, soils, biodiversity, and grape quality.
The vineyard is traversed by two rivers (the Rémin and the Farembert) which contribute to the freshness of the site and promote biodiversity and plant balance.
