About the wine
Racy, refined old-vine Carignan from a single South of France vineyard
- This lavish Languedoc red is drenched in full-powered juicy flavors of raspberry, with a backbone of spice and a velvety finish that’s simply irresistible.
- Your support helped Ben track down some of Southern France’s finest fruit, growing in a single vineyard lined with heritage 70-year-old vines, and helped him give this luxurious red the full treatment in the cellar.
- These old vines are super low yielding, which means Ben could only harvest enough fruit to make a few hundred cases of this robust red. Make sure you scoop a bottle up for yourself while there are still a few to be had.
Best before
This red will age well for the next 5 to 10 years.
Serving advice
Serve this red at around 60ºF and let it air out and breathe for a few minutes before serving.
