Varietal | Red Blend | |||
Region | France: Languedoc-Roussillon | |||
Notes | "The 2017 Languedoc shows more fruity concentration than the 2016, adding cherries to the crushed-stone notes found on the nose. It's fresh, vibrant and juicy, with silky tannins and a lip-smacking finish. A blend of 55% Syrah, 25% Carignan and 20% Grenache, it rates high for sheer drinkability and value over the next couple of years." (Wine Advocate) | |||
Additional Notes "Ripe raspberry and currant notes are backed by fresh acidity that highlights the licorice, floral and mineral details. Moderate, integrated tannins structure the tangy finish." (Wine Spectator) |
