Tasting Note

“Ceci est un flacon” is a distinctive, free-spirited wine from Domaine de la Vieille Julienne, made under the Vin de France label, allowing more freedom in terms of grape variety and winemaking style. The wine presents a vibrant ruby hue with expressive aromatics that leap from the glass—red cherries, wild strawberries, dried herbs, and subtle floral notes of violets and rose petals. Hints of crushed peppercorn and earthy spice add layers of intrigue. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, juicy, and energetic. Fresh red fruits dominate, supported by brisk acidity and fine-grained tannins. The structure is supple and lively, offering a more playful, accessible take compared to the domaine’s structured Châteauneuf du Pape wines. The finish is clean and slightly savoury, showcasing balance and drinkability with a natural elegance. A wine full of personality, charm, and freedom of expression.
