Fat Bastard
When Thierry and Guy first created these delicious wines, they did it with gusto. They poured their hearts, souls and great dollops of generosity into every bottle. In fact, it was a great big discovery (in winemaking terms) that led to the name ‘FAT bastard.’´ It comes from having left the wine on the lees for a lot longer than usual, which allowed it to develop more fully and completely. And when tasted, there was simply no other way to describe it other than: “Well, now that’s a FAT bastard!” This tradition of creating full-bodied wines to be enjoyed with bellyfuls of laughs and good-natured cheer continues today. Our winemakers give nothing short of their all when meticulously nurturing them to perfection. Whether it’s a celebration, a kuier or a “COME ON OVER!”, there’s a FAT bastard (or two) waiting to be opened.
Description
This wine presents a deep, dark ruby hue. The nose is rich with luxurious aromas of dark berry fruits and plum. On the palate, it is full-bodied and opulent, delivering a silky texture and a lasting finish that showcases ripe fruit character and subtle oak complexity.
Food Pairing
The Fat Bastard Golden Reserve 2024 pairs beautifully with hearty dishes such as juicy steaks, roast lamb, or venison. Its bold structure and rich fruit profile complement the robust flavors of these meats, making it an excellent choice for red meat dishes.
