Intensely coloured and powerful reds with a deep colour, firm tannins and high acidity, on aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant, plum, garrigue, pepper, liquorice and balsamic notes. Old vines (>50 years, often centenary) yield exceptional cuvées. A historical pillar of Languedoc-Roussillon blends (Corbières, Minervois, Fitou, Maury) and star of Catalan Priorat under the name Cariñena. Very late-ripening variety from Aragon, also called Mazuelo in Rioja.

The wine region of Languedoc-Roussillon
Largest single French vineyard, dominated by sunny, generous reds. Spicy Syrah, candied Grenache (ripe fruit, garrigue), structured Carignan, deep Mourvèdre, supple Cinsault. Stars: structured Corbières, Minervois, Faugères, Saint-Chinian; round Côtes-du-Roussillon. Legendary vins doux naturels: Banyuls and Maury (fortified Grenache) with notes of cocoa, fig, prune.
The word of the wine: Draft liquor (champagne)
After blending, the wine is bottled with a liqueur de tirage (a mixture of sugar and wine) and a yeast (selected yeasts). The yeast attacks the sugar and creates carbon dioxide. The fermentation, which lasts about two months, is prolonged by an ageing period (15 months minimum in total). The bottle is capped (some rare vintages are capped with a staple and a cork).
