Rozeta Corbières Red Blend
Notes from LBT spot on, more ripe crushed black cherry fruit driving the bus here, backed by blood orange, juniper, herbs, rubber, cinnamon. Banging as always!

May 9th, 2020Lovely. A great example of well-done carbonic, great lift and punch but nothing overtaking the rest of the wine. Fresh, textural, invigorating with its dark fruit and earthy/herbal character. Crisp black and red fruits, garrigue, roasted herbs, baked earth. Just sings sun-drenched Mediterranean France. Also of note, this really seems to have the extraction dialed in, LBT a few years ago was a tad thin, this is spot on. 40 CAR 30 GR 30 CIN

Apr 16th, 2019So as one is wont to do, I was in the mood for carignan. Introducing this new friend which is wildly expressive, deep, and harmonious on all fronts. Brilliant dark fruit on the nose accented with nutty scents. Lush and velvety, balanced tannins, complex and lingering. Great stuff!

Oct 27th, 2018Decanted. Red fruits and fresh ground black pepper on the finish. The first night this was good with BBQ rack o lamb, but I need food in order to enjoy this. The second night it really opened up. Raspberries and strawberry and much more balanced. I enjoyed a glass before dinner! Mostly Carignan w/Grenache, Syrah, Grenache Gris, Macabou, Terret. SS

Dec 12th, 20172015. The carbonic shows clearly but not enough to overwhelm the pure Languedoc fruit.

Jul 25th, 2021Organic Carignan plus some other local varietals. Perfect medium body dry notes of farm and garrigue but still easy stuff. Something for everyone.
