Description
The wine
La Ficelle means 'the string'. The story goes that barkeepers would dip a knotted string into a customer's jug to measure how much wine they had drunk before settling the bill. The Saint-Pourçain co-operative launched the wine about 30 years ago, before the region gained its appellation, and borrowed an idea from Mouton Rothschild: a new label each year, always painted by a cartoonist. It is a blend of Gamay and Pinot Noir.
Tasting notes
Bright red berries and a touch of pepper, light and juicy. Made for easy drinking.
How to enjoy
Serve slightly chilled, at 12–14°C. Try it with Saint Nectaire AOP, Mons Camembert or L'Artisan Marcel.
