Discover the best wines made with Cinsault as a single variety or as a blend of Vinos de Pago.
Light, fresh reds with a clear robe, supple tannins and a tender mouth, featuring aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry, rose, peony and soft spices. The absolute pillar of Provençal rosés (Côtes de Provence AOC, Bandol rosé) to which it brings finesse and freshness, also a component of GSM blends in Côtes-du-Rhône and Languedoc. Also a single variety in South Africa where it is a parent of Pinotage. Historic southern French grape.
Top of the Spanish quality pyramid (above DOCa and DO), reserved for 25 exceptional estates. Estate wines, grapes and vinification exclusively on site, 10 years of track record. All styles: concentrated, barrel-aged Cabernet, Syrah and Tempranillo reds (Dominio de Valdepusa, Arínzano, Pago de Otazu), maker's blends, a few ambitious whites. Great stylistic freedom.
