Profile
We’ve got an amazing blend here of syrah and carignan, making for a medium-bodied wine with raspberry and cherry as the highlight fruit profile. There’s some herbaceousness, spice and even tea leaf mixed in. The tannins are moderate and there’s a hint of florals to add some brightness to the wine. It’s so very smooth and an easy, loveable red.
Full price $35.00 from the producer.

Looks like this is either a wine sourced from various regions in France or it's from a smaller region that we haven't gotten around to writing about for you yet! If it's the former, well, it's hard to make general comments about a multi-regional French wine. So let's assume it's the latter: we've been lazy. Forgive us, there's only two of us, and we're mere mortals. We'll get round to writing something inspirational about this obscure (hopefully, otherwise we're in trouble) region eventually. Meanwhile, shoot in your suggestions (and your resume?), or just rejoice in the fact that there's something magical about heading off the beaten track and telling your friends all about that amazing grape that grows in the hinterlands of a place that doesn't even make it on the map – or Vinomofo's regional writeup section, at least.
