Boulevard Napoléon Carignan 2019

Opulent – Bramble – Cola – Spice

Our brooding and complex Carignan. Sourced from the 65 year old vines of our l'Angely vineyard. Fermented in steel tank and then matured with 40% of the wine resting in 1 and 2 year old 225L French oak barriques before bottling.

Boulevard Napoléon wines are the wines that we make ourselves, in our own winery in the La Livinière Premier Cru in the heart of the Minervois, South West France. They are made to compliment not just the cooking of St. JOHN but the central philosophy: that Nose-To-Tail is a way of being in the world, revolving around respect for the animal, for the farmer, and for the land that nurtures them. Our winemaking is no different.

In the vineyards, “look after the mother and you nourish the baby” is the mantra of those who, like us, tend to the soil with a diligence and care which ensures health of vines and quality of grapes - not just now, but for generations to come. And in the winery, vigneron Benjamin and Trevor’s low-intervention approach to winemaking is a celebration of that precious terroir, of the essential nature of each harvest, and of each varietal.
