| Notes | "An accomplished Corbieres blend from top Languedoc winemaker (and former French national rugby player) Gérard Bertrand. Appealing and intense aromas of fruits of the forest and black cherry, edged in garrigue. Deep, velvety and well-balanced palate, which has a sun-kissed feel with layers of ripe blackcurrant, cherries and plums, dried herb savouriness and soft fine tannins." (Decanter Magazine) | |||
Additional Notes "This spicy, refined red is supported by suave tannins that encase blackberry reduction, peppery spice, black olive, dark chocolate and licorice notes. Elements of smoke and garrigue fine tune the finish. Syrah, Merlot, Caladoc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Cabernet Franc and Carignan." (Wine Spectator) |
