Mimesis is the flagship red wine of Domaine Perréal, born from a unique terroir at the locality known as Les Boussicaux. It is predominantly composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, the true backbone of this wine, complemented by the estate’s oldest Syrah and Grenache Noir vines. This long-ageing wine perfectly conveys the energy and strength of Perréal’s terroir. It pairs beautifully with slow-cooked and/or spiced meats, game, and cheeses.
Comment by Jancis Robinson’s House: Award-winning wine critic, voted World’s Best Wine Critic 2024.
“Mint and wintergreen. Elderberry and blackcurrant fruits. A dark, ripe red wine wrapped in bronzed tannins.”
Score: 16/20
