"Cuvée des 2 C" Rouge, Famille Hubert - 2022

Item # 45304 750 mL

It's interesting to see meaningful producers who nod to tradition yet push limits. A first for us as the incredible growers at Château Peybonhomme are growing a Portuguese and Rhône Valley right in the heart of Bordeaux. This is an excellent, full-bodied red wine that anyone can appreciate for it's vigor and fruit profile.

Staff Pick Notes

Syrah and Touriga Nacional in the Gironde? Uncommon to say the least but our good friends at Hubert Vignerons have pulled it off and then some, creating an exciting, original wine at a great price, striking a balance between old world sensibilities and forward-looking, new-world innovation and flavor profiles. If you like red blends from California, you’d get along famously with this wine, but any Bordeaux purists out there will also love it. Aromas of toasty oak, gorgeous red fruit, and gentle eucalyptus lead us to a medium-bodied palate where the Syrah brings the spice and the Touriga brings rhubarb tart and plucky green herbaceous and floral notes. Produced according to the strict standards of ‘vin demeter,’ which means everything from grapes to bottle are certified biodynamic. 50% Syrah, 25% Touriga National, 15% Malbec, 10% Merlot.

Glossary

Syrah

We'd like to clear this up once and for all: the Shiraz grape is genetically identical to Syrah. Australian winemakers put "Shiraz" on the map (and, many would argue, vice versa), and the term is now used throughout much of the New World. Let it never be said, however, that Shiraz and Syrah are the same thing: the region in which the grape is grown determines much about the flavor of the wine it will produce. Typically, New World Shiraz yields bigger, fruitier wines than the the peppery Syrahs...

For white Bordeaux, only three varieties are permitted: Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillion, and Muscadelle. The exact percentages of each grape variety used in any...
