Jul 13th, 2017A walk on the lighter side of the Languedoc, this bottle of Carignan, Syrah & Cinsault disarms you with its fruit notes of oozy cranberry & strawberry before seducing & devouring you in a cloud of pasilla chile & potpourri dry ice. It’s a little dramatic, a little easy, and very sexy.

Jan 14th, 2016A pretty good bottle from Minervois. Fruit-driven in style, as you might expect, with some cherry and cranberry flavors dominating. The blend is smooth, but a bit flat; the fruit does not have the vivaciousness I might expect from this appellation. A blend of Cinsault, Syrah, and Carignan. 6/25/23.
