La Vieille Ferme Rouge 1998

Côtes du Lubéron, Provence, Sud de France, FranceThe blend is 50/20/15/10/5 grenache / syrah / mourvèdre / carignan / cinsault. More intense spicy black raspberry jam fruit nose with a touch of roasted earth. Fine black fruit flavours upfront round textures but fairly dry in the finish. Needs food to tame those tannins. We suggest a cheese fondue. Good value. Tasted: 01 March 2001Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
