Minervois, Languedoc, Sud de France, FranceThis is an attractive red wine with gamey sausage, peppery, minty, orange peel aromas streaked with black cherry, spicy and strawberry. Rich, ripe, round, full-bodied style with some youthful tannin. Very peppery, licorice, meaty, spicy, black cherry, plum, orange, vanilla flavours. Big, bold, warm and rustic with lots of fruit. Needs a year or two to smooth out or try with barbequed lamb.
