La Cremaille

2010 Corbieres Carignan

Les Vignes Centenaires La Cremaille is a remarkable red wine from the distinguished Corbieres region, crafted from the Carignan varietal. This vintage, notable for its complexity, showcases a medium-bodied profile with a delightful balance of acidity that brings brightness to the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, offering luscious notes of ripe black fruits and subtle hints of spice that evolve with each sip. The tannins are firm yet elegant, providing structure that enhances the wine's aging potential. As a dry wine, it invites a range of food pairings, making it a fantastic choice for gatherings or a quiet evening at home. This expression of Carignan truly embodies the character and heritage of the old vines from which it originates, promising a delightful experience for any wine enthusiast.

Languedoc-Roussillon
Languedoc-Roussillon

France's oldest and largest winemaking region, the Languedoc-Roussillon stretches around the sun-kissed Mediterranean from Roussillon to Provence. Taking in everything from rugged mountain slopes to breezy coastline, this vast region features various climates and terroirs. Outside of its famous AOCs like Minervois, Corbières and Saint-Chinian, many Languedoc wines are made in the less restrictive IGP classification, in particular the Pays d'Oc. There are many wine styles made in Languedoc, but full-bodied reds blending Grenache, Syrah, Carignan, Mourvèdre and Cinsault are the most common. For summer drinking, look to its fruity rosé, rounded Chardonnay and zingy Picpoul. You will often find grape varieties stated on the label of Languedoc's IGP wines, an uncommon practice in much of France.
