Olivier Coste Oldstar Carignan Noir 2021
l'Hérault, Vin de Pays d'Oc, Languedoc, Sud de France, FranceSince his childhood, Olivier Coste’s favourite places to play have been the vineyards and the family wine cellar at Domaine Montrose, his family’s wine estate founded in 1701 in Pézenas. With this upbringing, Olivier developed a profound attachment to the Languedoc’s terroir and landscape, and later to its wines. This was fermented and aged in stainless, to preserve the purity of the older bush vines. Baked plum, boysenberry is lit with a buzzy acidity, and framed with fine, sticky tannins, finishing with cracked stones and a dusting of pepper. A substantial red, yet a lovely 13% take on carignan. Try with grilled pork.Tasted: 01 June 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $22.00 | 750ml | consignment |
