The expressive nose of mushroom and dry earth has intensity. Equally potent in the mouth; affirmed taste in the mid-palate as well as in the long finish. Impressive by its power.
Salmon pink. Ethereal, complex and seductive nose; vinous, hard to describe. Wide and expansive on the palate, complex taste, almost firm in the clean, long finish.
Very pale in colour, almost flesh pink; elegant yellow cherry and citrus nose; dry, beautifully balanced. The ultimate rosé Champagne.
It doesn’t get much better than this. Pale straw in colour with a lime tint. Active mousse with tiny bubbles; toasty apple nose with notes of nuts and smoke. Light and elegant on the palate with a thread of minerality. Perfectly balanced with great length. Just a joy.
Clear, deep old brass. The nose of honey, caramel-apple and noble rot goes on forever. Full-bodied, palate-coating; tastes of apricot-pineapple marmalade with a long finish and enough acidity to keep it interesting. Ready to drink now, won’t get better.
Clear medium-deep garnet beginning to brown. Mature nose of cherry, raspberry, prune and coffee. A simple wine, tasting of cherries and stewed fruit, with ample alcohol and acidity. Drink immediately.
Saint Chinian is a special village in the Languedoc where grapes have grown since the Middle Ages. Sandstone and schist slopes yield these Syrah and Mourvèdre vines and their perfumed, cold cream and violets aromas. Rustic and a bit chunkier, this richer red carries smoked, dried meats, dried blackberry, cassis and liquorice across ripe, ragged tannins. Pour with equally rustic dishes for best effect.
