Le Lolo de l'Anhel Corbières Carignane Blend

Love this wild fruit spice roasted meats 81 % - Carignan 10%- Syrah 7% Grenache 2%-Mouvedre fun wine

Great value, punchy little sucker of a wine! Carignan's rustic profile always work for me

Why do so many natural / natural-adjacent wines need to use their labels & names to make awkward jokes about breasts?
Anyway, this carignan based Corbières was pretty delicious, and an excellent buy at the price. Needs a decant off it's chunky sediment and a vigorous swirl (little gassy). Macerated red fruit, game, spice and hot rocks. Great acidity and tension. 🍓🐎🪨

If Corbières is the heart of Languedoc then surely Carignan (81%) is its soul. This is a terrific brasserie wine that brings abundant joy throughout the meal. Silly to score, but hey.....

Is Corbières the heart of the Languedoc? Is Carignan its soul? Yummy!

Bright fruit but balanced, not too sweet or a tannic. Great with food

Great stuff.
