Domaine du Château Larroque
Vin de Pays des Côtes de Gascogne

Terrific MB value 14. Cved. Garnet color and floral yet earthy nose despite the young age. Lively texture and long finish. Great pairing with Andrew’s steak.

This is one of those wines that doesn’t blow your mind, but is still really good and would pair with just about anything.

Easy drinking with little tannins, but enough acid to tame the fruit.

Since the 2007 vintage, this has been my informal "house red" (informal, because it's not going to be a perfect paring with everything). The 2012 (I have one bottle left) is concentrated, black fruit and minerality, and wonderfully aromatic. This is organically-farmed tannat, cabernet franc, merlot, and Monsieur Bozzi has a few rows of syrah planted as well. The small winery receives its barrels (one-used) from Vega Sicilia in Spain through the consulting oenologist, Stéphane Beuret.
