Château Ollieux Romanis
Cuvée Prestige Corbières Carignane Blend
Solid southern France blend, showing earthy, rustic, dusty dark fruit, a chewy rocky side, a touch of acid as well as some grip. Pretty harmonious all in all, and manages to avoid feeling baked or confectionary. A tad cumbersome and one glass was enough, but an enjoyable glass it was.
