Tis the season for soul warming Languedoc reds. This was the basic faugeres, carignane/Grenache/cinsault blend. Soft and mellow, black cherry fruit has maybe dried out a little, slightly brown even, but still there, plus olives, herbs, some subtle brett. Is it more fun than a Barral of monkeys? Not quite but a nice drink

Not for the brett-averse. I think the barrel staves once lined the bottom of a chicken coop. Not bad, but I'm more tolerant of brett when there is less fruit and more savory character.
