Best enjoyed decanted 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavours to open fully. Drink with barbecued meats.

Côté Mas Rouge 2011 PGI Pays d'Oc

A versatile, supple and youthful middleweight red, with a ruby-purple colour and a nose of cassis, blackberry jam and grenadine. Tannins are ripe and soft, framing a juicy core of fresh berry fruit. As enjoyable on its own as it is with a rack of ribs.
