Tasting Notes

For over a decade, Quentin and Louis Modat have dedicated themselves to cultivating organic and biodynamic grapes. They are on a continuous quest for improvement, pioneering innovative viticultural practices centered around the well-being of the vines. Their methods include cover crops, fostering biodiversity, pastoralism, gentle pruning, traditional grafting, and natural plant-based treatments. The Domaine Modat Comme Avant 2016 greets the senses with red fruit aromas and subtle earthy undertones. This wine boasts a light, silky texture that complements its refreshing and spicy palate. It's an approachable wine with fine tannins that contribute to its overall elegance. For a perfect pairing, savor it alongside grilled red meat. Don't forget, decanting this wine can bring out its best qualities.
