Description

"Bright and fragrant, the inviting bouquet shows dark plum, strawberry tart, warm spice and floral characters, followed by a juicy palate that is beautifully rounded and supple. The wine offers attractive fruit intensity as well as elegant savoury notes, making it immediately appealing and very easy to enjoy. At its best: now to 2019" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, March 2018

A youthful, plump Merlot that is fruit-expressive. This likable merlot from southern France shows dark plum, blueberry, floral and mixed spice aromas on the nose. Succulent and rounded on the palate offering the drinker a silky texture and vibrant fruit flavours with a delectably long, smooth finished. Simply perfect for everyday drinking.

Welcome to France's most exciting wine region. East of Bordeaux and west of the Rhône, the locals call it the Midi. "Wine lovers", says the Financial Times, "would be fools to ignore what the smaller domaines of the South of France have to offer, as this is France's hidden treasure - handcrafted wines at bargain prices".
