  • Corbières Rouge. A very pleasant red wine with a beautiful structure. Originating from the region near the river Orbieu, with its pebbled terraces of clay and slate. Made from 40% Carignan, 30% Syrah, 15% Grenache and 15% Mourvèdre , according to classic red winemaking (picking, pressing, alcoholic fermentation, maturation). The wine has matured briefly in wooden casks. The age of the vines from which the grapes come, are old, between 15-60 years old. This has a nice influence on the quality, the taste (aromas) and the character of the wine. Nicely full, ripe and spicy.

    Story behind the label: The Corbières wine region is by far the largest AOC in the Languedoc region and has a long wine tradition; 95% of the wines are red. The wine takes the name of the region, 'Élevé en fût de chène' literally means 'raised in oak barrels'.
  • Red wine - Ripe, spicy and intense. Very deep color with opaque core. Rich nose, complex, beautiful wood tone well fused with the many fruits. Full, concentrated taste with velvety fruit, sweet and creamy, beautiful smoky tone of the wood, very long in the aftertaste. Powerful and accessible at the same time. Balanced use of wood.
  • Our sommeliers recommend:

    Good with slow cooked meats and stews with spicy notes, spicy BBQ dishes and roast poultry, such as partridge, with a strong (port) sauce. Also good to combine with baked or grilled lamb back, hare, saddle, leg and Iberian pork with strong sauces and strong, hard cheeses with compote.
