Powerful, deep reds with firm tannins and dense texture, showing aromas of blackberry, leather, garrigue, black pepper, liquorice and animal notes (game, forest floor) with age. Star of Bandol AOC as a single variety and pillar of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas and Costières blends. Also in GSM in Languedoc and Australia. A late-ripening variety of Spanish origin (Mataró/Monastrell).
Southern Burgundy, cradle of the world's greatest Chardonnays across ~30 km of slopes. Opulent, mineral whites with signature notes of butter, toasted hazelnut, honey, brioche, citrus and flint, taut on chiselled acidity — legendary Montrachet and Meursault. Fine, silky Pinot Noir reds (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth): structured Pommard, floral Volnay. Corton, only red Grand Cru.
