Vin de Table Rita Rouge

Loud bretty nose with loads of cracked stones, black peppercorns, and dark cherry skins. Very St. Joseph Syrah-like even though it’s pure Carignane from just outside Corbieres, I think. On the palate it’s lean and lively. Hard to put this down, and, at 12.5%, there’s little reason to.

2011. Earthy.

Simply delicious, esp with lamb lollipops. Fresh and perfectly #carbonic My favorite from mylene

Full bodied, so tasty.

More structure than a Pinot or a gamy. But it’s not harsh or strong as a Bordeaux. Nice with aged beef where the beef flavor mellows out with again.

Medium garnet color with enticing nose of earthy red fruits, hints of menthol and lively, fresh and stimulating texture, great balance and good acidic bite and long finish. Excellent. 12.5 ABV. No idea it’s “all natural “ wine. Mylene Bru production. All old vine Carignan, 2700 bottles. JL 20.

Really enjoyable. I was expecting a quite dried and tannic wine from past experiences of older vintages of this producer. But this had plenty of fresh fruits and was a more subtle wine as a whole. Beautiful to drink now

Light and delicious cherry note, bright acidity yet still dry and spicy. Finish with hint of #musk #mint and sense of mineral.

Carignane from Corbieres
