Alain Grignon Carignan Vieilles Vignes 2015, PGI Pays De L'Hérault
£7.99
Price Checked (22nd Feb)
An indigenous grape variety of the Languedoc, Carignan produces dark ruby red wines with plenty of body, and are said to be a great expression of the rugged heathland terroir around Carcassonne. This example is from low-yielding vines aged around 40 years. Deep and inky red in colour, the wine is crammed with black cherry fruit, lifted by subtle vanilla aromas from a touch of oak ageing. Bold, meaty tannins provide satisfying texture and length. Drink with traditional and hearty southern French cuisine like cassoulet and duck confit.
