Benjamin Darnault Maury Sec 2018
About the wine
Bold, scrumptious red from your go-to winemaking genius in the South of France
Rich, vibrant and juicy, with a mouthful of luscious red fruit flavors and a plush, silky smoothness – this refined French red is truly a world-class crowdpleaser!
When you gave Ben the opportunity to craft this delectable red from a parcel of precious old-vine Grenache and Syrah nestled in the foothills of the Pyrenees, he jumped for joy!
Maury is a little corner of France famous for its sweet, fortified wines – but Ben's on a mission to take impeccable grapes from the region's old vines and make mind-bogglingly delicious wines like this red, just for you.
Best before
This refined French red will age well for 2 to 5 years at least.
Serving advice
For best results, Ben suggests opening your bottle a few hours before enjoying it, if possible. After you've given it a chance to breathe and open up, serve this red at around 60ºF and enjoy!
