Product Description:

This wine personifies the Roussillon region, and virtually transports you to the Mediterranean coast in France.

Mild garrigue - that arid, dry underbrush found in the area - paired with amazing ripe fruit notes (think red raspberry and macerated strawberry!!) dance across the palate, while the mild oak from this wine provides a perfect framework for the bright acidity and underpinning of minerality to balance out this beauty. But what we still can't get over is the price - how is a wine this complex and full of character under $20!?!

This is a hearty red that you should certainly go deep on; a great match for any cuisine, but particularly a slow roasted chicken with olives and lemon, or a Mediterranean themed meal. Whichever direction you go, there is little doubt that the highlight will be this beautiful Carignan - it's a delight!
