Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
A well-structured southern French red built on garrigue-laced dark fruit, with Syrah lending smoky depth and Grenache adding warmth alongside the earthy grip of old-vine Carignan. The herbal, scrubby character of the Minervois terroir comes through clearly — think dried thyme, black olive, and ripe plum. This is an honest, food-friendly wine that drinks well with rustic Mediterranean dishes.
