Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A blend of 60% Syrah and 40% Grenache, this wine offers both beefy and herbal notes among the more standard black raspberry and plum fruit flavors. Medium-full on the palate with a hint of sanguine character, this comes off a bit brighter and more balanced than one might anticipated from the bouquet.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Soft barnyard mingles with dried thyme and lavender, adding complexity to the juicy plum, cherry and wild raspberry flavors. Creamy but firm, with gripping tannins and a cocoa-dusted finish. With 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 10% Carignan, this is an intense Minervois that can stand up to beef stew or braised short ribs.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A stunning Minervois red composed of 50% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 10% Mourvèdre and 10% Carignan. Garrigue definitely takes center stage on the nose via thyme and lavender, with a strong black cherry and raspberry backbone. A lush, satiny texture with dusty tannins and a rich mocha-infused finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
With 70% Syrah and 30% Grenache, this wine exhibits loads of red fruit character: raspberries strawberry, red currant and rhubarb all make an appearance backed by accents of garrigue herbaceousness. Good acidity and light tannins makes this an easy go-to for barbecue chicken or pork.
