Coteaux du Languedoc.
Valerie and Dominque Ibanez.
A blend of Cinsault and Grenache.
Light ruby red in the glass.
A delicate nose of raspberry, leather and smoke.
Raspberry and cherry, medium bodied, spicy, tangy, smoky, quite smooth. With time, the wine developed a bitter edge and became dryer.
Red apple tanginess on the finish.
Not a forward or showy wine, but quite enjoyable.
Purchased at $16.95 (Canadian).
