The 2021 Moulin La Viguerie Posterite 70 is an expressive Southern Rhône red showing blackberry, black cherry and ripe plum alongside violet, dried herbs, garrigue, cracked pepper and subtle earthy spice. The wine has a generous Mediterranean character, with ripe dark fruit balanced by fresh acidity and savoury herbal notes. Fine mineral nuances add depth and help give the wine a focused, layered profile.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied and finely structured, with lively acidity, supple tannins and layers of dark and red fruit. Blackberry and black cherry are complemented by ripe plum, dried herbs, garrigue and gentle peppery spice, while subtle earthy and mineral notes develop through the mid-palate. The tannins provide shape and structure without overwhelming the fruit, creating a balanced and approachable texture. The finish is dry, long and persistent, with lingering dark fruit, Mediterranean herbs, pepper and savoury mineral character.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Southern Rhône drinkers who enjoy generous fruit, savoury complexity and a structured yet approachable style. The 2021 vintage is drinking well now, with bottle age beginning to bring greater integration and earthy depth. Best enjoyed now or over the next 4–6 years. Pair with slow-roasted lamb shoulder, Provençal beef daube, duck with olives, grilled lamb sausages with white beans, or roasted eggplant with tomato, garlic and Mediterranean herbs.
