Tasting profile

The Carte Noire red from the Vignerons du Mont Ventoux co-operative, in the appellation beneath Mont Ventoux on the eastern edge of the southern Rhône, where altitude and cool nights give more lift than the valley floor. Grenache with Syrah: red cherry and bramble over garrigue herbs, black pepper and a stony finish, medium-bodied with supple tannin, generous but with genuine freshness behind it.
