Domaine de Nizas Carignan Vieilles Vignes, Vin de Pays de Caux, France

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：4852

Produced from the once dominating grape of the Languedoc-Roussillon region, Carignan, this wine is lively and ready to drink now. Fresh strawberry and raspberry scents are accented by herbal notes of the garrigue, while the palate offers a bit more heft by way of moderate tannins and riper, jammy fruit flavors. ——L.B.(11/1/2009)—— 85

It’s impressive how exciting old vine Carignan can be, and what an underrated grape it is. Here’s proof that it makes big, perfumed wines, layered with dark tannins and wild flavors of herbs and dark berries.——R.V.(12/15/2007)—— 89
