Domaine de La Clapière
Gatefer Pays d'Oc Red Blend
Languedoc Roussillon, France
Sturdy, gutsy, very much a Merlot (there is also Syrah, which is missed in the description above). Truffles and fur, with hard and alcoholic liquorice burn. Definitely decant or open an hour and a half before.

The surprise of the weekend: this beautiful Languedoc magnum blending Syrah, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Vinification partially combines carbonic maceration which brings a beautiful fruity exuberance, combined with a oak breeding, the result may seem a little technical, but the whole is surprising in terms of its price. A tasty wine with a remarkable finish for a fairly powerful but flexible and fond body. Perfect to accompany barbecues, dinner aperitifs.
La belle surprise du week-end. Ce beau magnum languedocien assemblant Syrah, Merlot, et Cabernet Sauvignon. La vinification associe partiellement la macération carbonique qui apporte une belle exubérance fruitée, associé à un élevage en Fût, le résultat peut paraître un peu technique, mais l’ensemble est bluffant au regard de son prix. Un vin sapide à la finale remarquable pour un corps assez puissant mais souple et friand. Parfait pour accompagner les barbecues, apéros dînatoires.
