Lionel Osmin & Cie Marcillac Fer de Soif 2019

Domaine History

Lionel Osmin & Cie presents Fer de Soif as a creative interpretation of the Marcillac appellation, centred on Mansois, the local name for Fer Servadou. The cuvée is designed as an approachable expression of this Southwest French grape.

Terroir

The cuvée comes from 3 hectares of vineyards on terraces of rougiers, the distinctive red soils associated with Marcillac.

Tasting Notes
