2003 Vin De Pays D'oc Merlot 75%, Mourvèdre 15%, Carignan 10%
Alain Chabanon's Le Petit Merle Aux Alouettes is a delightful red wine that beautifully showcases the unique terroir of Vin De Pays D'oc. This 2003 vintage is a blend of Merlot, Mourvèdre, and Carignan, resulting in a harmonious expression of ripe fruit and subtle complexity. The wine greets the palate with a medium body that balances richness and elegance, while its acidity adds a refreshing lift, making it incredibly food-friendly. The tannins are present yet soft, providing structure without overwhelming the palate. Bursting with flavors of dark berries, plum, and hints of herbal undertones, this wine is a lovely example of craftsmanship that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a variety of dishes. An overall delightful choice that reflects the regional character of Southern France.
