Bright and luscious red fruit (cranberry & strawberry) and a lovely light effervescence.

Chilled this slightly and it was perfect. Crunchy dark fruit, black pepper and menthol.

Black cherries and a hint of spice, easy tannins and no perceptible oakiness. Nice pairing for roasted chicken. Still pretty tight so give it air for 30+ minutes to let it open.

Super juicy black and blue fruit, with a funky-cheese retro-nasal thing going on. Trust me, that's a good thing.

Brambly berries, leather, game, flowers, menthol, baked earth. Exhibits the wild side of Carignane yet remains balanced and elegant.
