Société Cooperative Castelmaure
Cuvée No. 3 Corbières Syrah Blend
Hot and sour soup meets blackberry compote. Jammy black fruit, celery seed spice, and drinks hot for its 13.5 abv listing. An interesting red. Maybe an hour decanting would have helped tame the alcohol a bit. #vinebox

Nov 19th, 2016Full bodied, strong smokiness on the tongue, maybe tobacco, dark fruit & oak, noticeable tannins. A rich wine but not totally in love with the flavor.
