Authenticity and diversity are the keys: Terra Volubilis (standing for the quintessence of terroir in latin) blends individual terroirs in mountainous northern granite vineyards and hilly, rocky soils in the south, all sourced throughout the highest quality level.
Presentation
Presentation
Charismatic and pure, this wine offers up a dark and concentrated Cotes-du-Rhone with unique finesse and balance. The complementarity of terroirs from both banks of the Rhône River evokes an exemplary expression of Grenache, richly flavored and generous. It's is not a single-estate wine but a perennial bargain because it retains a sense of freshness not often found in the Southern Rhône Valley.

Tasting
Subtle, fruity yet elegant, this richly concentrated red blend features distinctive green olive and peppercorn aromas alongside cherry fruit. It's silky and elegant on the palate. Effortless but concentrated, this organic wine is balanced by fresh acidity and fine, firm tannins, with a long finish. Terra Volubilis in its now available organic option is the perfect match for grilled meats, chicken and veggies on the backyard BBQ. It’s that full body and spicy red taste that really makes the match.
