Description

A fascinating wine from a shop-favourite producer.

Hybrids are an interesting topic and can be confusing for customers and professionals alike. Simply, hybrids come into existence by grafting different species of grapes onto each other in hopes of creating more disease resistant varietals. These varietals also carry new and unique flavour profiles and winemaking potentials.

The 2021 Goupil is an excellent example of this. It carries deep inky colour and weight with a balanced structure and protectively-handled dark plum and currant fruit notes. All in all a very palatable and delicious wine – a perfect expression of the potential hybrid varietals show.

We highly recommend this for anyone who is interested in hybrids, anyone who is an Ostal Levant fan, or anyone eating a roasted piece of red meat.
