Grape

Syrah or Shiraz, Grenache, Carignan

Origin
Winemaker Jérôme Regues blends two different terroirs to make this wine; a typical Corbières red blend. Grapes from Ornaisons provide the rich fruit flavours, while grapes from Durban, around 25km further south, are said to add spicier notes.
Taste
Showing notes of damsons and blackberries on the nose, with subtle hints of garrigue herbs, which carry through on the palate. Full and fruity, with rounded tannins adding a supporting structure.
Enjoy
Perfect with your home-made shepherd's pie.

    A excellent find

    Really nice wine that goes perfectly with my lamb and chorizo stew! Excellent wine for the price.

    An undemanding southern red.

    Good soft fruit flavours. Drinks well at moderate temperatures. A undemanding easy drinking red and a very reasonable price. Definitely buy again.

    Enjoyable 'gluggy' wine for full flavoured food. Decent black plum and light spice flavours. A little light tannin and a fresh finish. A good example of a modern style red from the Languedoc.

    A very drinkable French red wine

    Corbieres wines have much improved in recent years and this one is very smooth. This is now the second time we have bought it from Majestic's Witney branch rather than buying whilst in France.
