The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine By combining quality with reasonable prices, Château de Manissy crafts tasty wines that have won the hearts of wine lovers everywhere. Owned by the Missionary Fathers of the Holy Family for over a century and managed since 2003 by the talented Florian André, this biodynamically cultivated estate has been a rising star in the Southern Rhône Valley for some time. 

Tavel, Lirac, Côtes-du-Rhône, and Châteauneuf-du-Pape are its most treasured appellations on 60 hectares of land perfectly situated between sand, limestone, clay, and pebbles.
Wine A blend of Grenache and Syrah, the 2020 red Lirac Trinité is an intense and deep wine promised to a long aging of ten years and more. We appreciate its spicy and fruity character, its dense and full body, its long saline finish; it is a concentrated and sappy wine, of good balance, with a lot of freshness and enchanting garrigue flavors. To be enjoyed decanted with spicy veal filet mignon or lamb chops. Rated 93/100 by our Selection Committee.
Vinification Hand harvested. De-stemming and crushing of the grapes. Alcoholic fermentation at a temperature varying from 24 to 28°C during 15 days. Aged in concrete tanks for 9 to 12 months.
