Made in a warm Mediterranean setting and rooted in the traditions of the Dom Brial growers’ collective since 1932, it offers a characterful taste of southern Roussillon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrilliant deep amber in the glass, this Rivesaltes Ambré opens with inviting aromas of vanilla, chocolate and dried banana. The palate is silky and full-bodied, combining generous notes of candied fruit and honey with a satisfying dark-chocolate finish.\n\nAs a non-vintage fortified wine, it is crafted for immediate enjoyment and can also develop additional complexity when carefully cellared. Its rich, mature style makes it particularly appealing to those who enjoy sweet wines with nutty, caramelised and dried-fruit character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe vineyards associated with Château les Fontaines—formerly known as Mas de Les Fonts in Catalan—are located in Calce, in the north-eastern Pyrénées-Orientales. The vines benefit from a warm Mediterranean climate and the distinctive terroir of Roussillon. The grapes are directly pressed and cold-settled before alcoholic fermentation in concrete tanks. Mutage, the addition of spirit to stop fermentation, preserves the wine’s natural sweetness and contributes to its fortified character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe lightly chilled at around 10–12°C. Its sweetness and depth make it an excellent partner for foie gras, blue cheeses and desserts such as tarte Tatin, while its chocolate and dried-fruit notes also complement caramelised or nut-based desserts. Decanting is generally not necessary, although a brief airing can help the aromas open in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDom Brial is a growers’ collective founded in 1932, built on shared values, regional know-how and a commitment to expressing the character of its vineyards.
