The sommelier info
Fesse Mathieux from Château des Annibals has an intense red color, a very pleasant nose with notes of red fruits, violet and iris as well as thyme and rosemary. The mouth is lively and silky, complex with beautiful aromas of zan, tobacco and musk. Made from Syrah and Grenache, this Coteaux Varois is a fruit bomb.
The name Fesse-Mathieux is synonymous with the word miser, grippe-sou in reference to Molière, and was given to it because the estate's Syrah vines are not very generous... This expression has its origins in the story of Saint Matthieu, patron saint of moneychangers, who is said to have been spanked for giving up his possessions.

The domain
Chateau des Annibals was created in 1772. The wine estate is located in the heart of green Provence. Its 30-hectare vineyard extends west of Brignoles. Directed since 2001 by Nathalie Coquelle, she has made Annibals a small jewel.
Château des Annibals takes its name from the legend of Hannibal in reference to the strong and courageous winemakers, who have cultivated the castle’s lands for generations. According to legend, the Carthaginian conqueror passed on the lands of the Annibals, with his elephants, along the Via Aurélia on the way to try to conquer Rome. The stone clay-limestone terroir of the Domaine des Annibals as well as its exceptional sunshine on the hillsides facing the massif of the Loube, allow the vine to flourish fully there.

Finally, the Annibals Fesse Mathieux cuvée is fruity and crunchy in the mouth. Its name, synonymous with the word Avare, was chosen because this Red comes from vineyards of Syrah avares of grapes.
