Great nose: raw dry-aged strip steak, crushed rocks, peppercorns, oozy dark berry sap. Dense and minerally, this is soft-textured but with loads of tannic scaffolding. Long, clingy, minerally finish. Because it’s from Corbieres, the acids are a bit lower than, say, a Northern Rhône Syrah, but other than that it would be a dead ringer for a Syrah from that region. Great value. — 7 years ago

The nose here is a flight to France and back. And it's not until later you realize you didn't have to pay for a ticket, but you sure as hell got your money's worth. — 8 years ago

100% old vine (115-130 years old) Carignan from Corbieres, mostly redfruits, fresh and lively, great acidity, long finish, terrific example of how good low alcohol (12.5%) Carignan can be!! — 20 hours ago
