Flavor Profile
Juicy, bold and made for a hearty meal, Canet Rôtie is an aromatic and deeply fruited red inspired by the famed Côte Rôtie wines of France’s Rhône Valley—and the lively barbecues the Lemstra family hosts at their estate, Château Canet. (Aptly, Rôtie is French for “roasted.”)
In southern France's Minervois region, the vineyards of Château Canet are surrounded by woods full of wild boars. When summers are extra dry, the conditions motivate these smart animals to quench their thirst with the Lemstra family’s soon-to-be-harvested grapes. So from time to time, one ends up on a spit…
This is Floris’ go-to wine pairing for such occasions—hence the bottle’s cheeky label—and the bestselling red in their range.
Just like the red wines of Côte Rotie, it’s a dark-fruited blend of Syrah and Viognier, a white grape, which adds an elegant floral lift. Each is pressed, settled and fermented separately, allowing the team to taste and evaluate the juice throughout the process and create a more harmonious wine through blending.
The resulting ruby-hued wine is vibrant, charming and will pair beautifully with your choice of grilled or smoked meats. (Whether or not you land on wild boar is up to you.)
