Description
Mort Aux Cons 2025 is a natural wine crafted by , in the Roussillon region in . Thisbig and bold, 14.5% red wine is made with (a local Catalan clone of Grenache) and grapes.
We have not yet tried it, but expect a big presence from this Southern French red with these grapes. We hear it is both rich and powerful, with ripe red fruit, toasted notes and sweet spice. The palate is deep and savoury, with a slightly wild, animal edge and a long, polished finish shaped by the wood ageing.
It is made with the grapes macerated for 3 weeks with alternating pump-overs and punch-downs for gentle extraction. The wine is pressed manually in a vertical wooden press, completes malolactic fermentation in barrel and is then aged for 1 year in wood. Bottled without filtration or added inputs.
