Grape

Carignan, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Syrah or Shiraz

Origin
This is the second wine of Château d'Aussières, an ancient Languedoc property, which was revived by Bordeaux powerhouse Domaines Barons de Rothschild in 1997. Around 20% of the Grenache-dominated blend spends 10-12 months in oak before bottling.
Taste
Dark violet-tinged red in colour, with the classic Corbières aromas of garrigue shrubs and a persistent finish reminiscent of black olives.
Enjoy
Spicy enough to match with peppery steaks and stews, this wine would go very well with barbecued food.

    Recommended

    Very pleasant, well made, satisfying. A good Sunday roast wine. Reasonable, but not outstanding, value at £9.99.

    Are we paying for the label ?

    I really don't think this is worth the money. It tastes old fashioned and reminds me of my Gran's cupboards.

Press Reviews

  • "40% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre, 10% Carignan. From the Lafite stable - so why isn't it being shipped straight out to China? A hint of top-quality oak in here and a grown-up dry finish. Bordeaux build. I'd wait a year or two but it's pretty smart - provided you want a Médoc from the Languedoc."
