Martin Texier 'La Boutanche' Vin de France 2023 1L

The "La Boutanche" label is a collaborative effort with importer Selection Massale to source tasty and affordable organic, minimalist wines from sought-after producers. Martin Texier began making wine in 2014, after a circuitous journey through various disciplines including the study of economics and a stint in the music world as a DJ (“DJ Sans Soufre”). Following time spent learning the wine trade in NYC through internships at Flatiron Wines and Uva Wines, he returned home to follow in the footsteps of his father, renowned northern Rhône natural winemaker, Eric Texier. This bottling is 60% grenache, 40% cinsault from 30+ year old vines in the Languedoc, vinified for 6 months in concrete tank. Light and bright, bursts of fresh red cherry fruit and pit ramble across a juicy palate that finishes clean and just a touch spicy. Lovely with a slight chill and a vast array of cuisines. Organically grown, low-intervention/natural wine.
