Domaine De La Sobilane Rivesaltes 1953 (750ML)

Rivesaltes is an Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée for naturally sweet, fortified wines (vin doux naturel) made in the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region of France. The wines are red or white, and made from Muscat, Grenache noir, Grenache blanc, Grenache gris, Macabeu and (rarely) Malvoisie grapes. Apparently, the trick for pairing these wines is to match the color of the wine to your desert, and everything goes with cheese, so never worry. These are fascinating complex, sweet wines that can go ahead to head with the great wines of Toro Albala for sheer intensity. These wines are all recent releases from the Domaine and in pristine condition.
