Another of my all-time value wines. For me, this is the embodiment of Corbieres. Bramble, dark fruit, some underneath astringency (I like astringency) and just south of France goodness.

A very deeply colored wine with a nose of bright plum, pomegranate and blueberry fruit. I get a slight vegetal note as well as in the smell of braised turnip greens. Clean and deep dark fruit with medium acid and a hint of tannin. Very pleasant.

A little harsh. Dark fruit and chocolate. I've tasted a lot better from Corbieres for the same price range.
