Le Faite Rouge
Full and structured, this red wine from Southwest France develops an aromatic complexity of black fruit (blackberry and blackcurrant) and liqueur, underlined by subtly toasted notes. This wine goes very well with finely sliced cured ham, a duck breast stuffed with mushrooms or fine cheeses."
Winery
Producteurs Plaimont is a cooperative of wine producers based in southwest France, with vineyards in Saint Mont, Madiran and Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh, as well as IGP Côtes de Gascogne, Gers and Comte Tolosan. The company produces a range of regional wines under two wine labels: Plaimont Producteurs and Plaimont Terroirs & Châteaux.
In 1979, André Dubosc joined together three wine cooperatives from Plaisance, Aignan and Saint Mont. The new company's name was chosen to reflect these three cooperatives. In 1999, Plaimont grew with the addition of cooperatives from Crouseilles and Condom, and today, has 1000 winegrowers farming some 5300 hectares (13,097 acres) of vineyard. Producteurs Plaimont produces around 40 million bottles of wine per year.
The Saint Mont and Madiran vineyards are planted to Tannat, along with other red grape varieties like Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as the lesser-known Pinenc grape. In Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh and Saint Mont, members cultivate white grape varieties like Arrufiac, Petit Courbu, Gros Manseng and Petit Manseng. Plaimont also has plantings of Colombard and Tannat for its IGP wines.
Cave Producteurs Plaimont has created this full and structured red wine from Southwest France. Made from a blend of Tannat, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinenc, the nose develops an aromatic complexity of black fruit (blackberry and blackcurrant) and liqueur, underlined by subtly toasted notes that lead onto a long and enjoyable finish. Le Faite Rouge goes very well with finely sliced cured ham, a duck breast stuffed with mushrooms, or fine cheeses. Available for deliveries within Metro Manila.
