About the wine
Wine Of The Week
- Benjamin has pretty much taken the Minervois and put it on the map with his winemaking and this little beauty is the perfect embodiment of why we reckon he's a real wizard with his wines.
- This is one of the most popular wines we've ever had on the UK site, thanks to its rich, ripe, blackcurrant and mulberry fruit bomb of flavor that explodes on your tongue.
- We went all Victor Kiam over it. Well, we didn't actually buy the company, but we bought every last bottle, so we could give you a great wine at an even better price.
