The wine region of Corbières Boutenac
Languedoc AOP at the heart of Corbières (180 m, stony iron-rich clay-limestone hills, Mediterranean with cers wind): signature Carignan red (30–50%) complemented by Syrah (≤30%), Grenache and Mourvèdre — dark-coloured with ripe black fruits (cherry, blackberry, plum), spices and garrigue, full-bodied with silky tannins and persistent finish. Old-vine Carignan, AOP 2005, finesse and elegance, first cru of Languedoc.
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: Wooded
A set of aromas brought about by ageing in barrels (usually oak). This can be pleasant when, in small doses, it brings a touch of spice, roast or vanilla to an already constructed ensemble. When the violent woodiness dominates the wine, it is quickly tiring. Easily identifiable aromatically, it is sought after (to the point of abuse) by the makers of coarse wines. New World manufacturers and, alas, some French winemakers use oak chips to impart the woody taste, which is tantamount to artificial flavoring.
