Description
In a nutshell:
A warm and spicy Languedoc blend with lush fruit and a hint of southern French herbs.
The lowdown:
This classic southern French blend brings together Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre in a style that's pleasingly full and generous without being over the top. It's wonderfully round on the palate, with supple black cherry aromas that give way to hints of garrigue - think thyme, rosemary, and a touch of lavender. The ripe fruit and earthy herbs sit comfortably together. There's a fine mix of fruit, spice, and richness here, all nicely wrapped up with a fresh, persistent ending.
The Producer:
Domaine les Caizergues lies in the foothills of the Cévennes, about an hour north of Montpellier, and has been the passion project of British couple Pat and Bob Middleton since 2017. With just over 30 hectares of vines, they grow a range of classic Languedoc varieties, focusing on wines that truly reflect the local terroir. Their commitment to environmentally friendly practices is evident, with organic certification achieved in 2021. The Middletons' dedication to quality and sustainability shines in their wines that feel genuinely rooted in their rugged, sun-soaked corner of the Languedoc.
When to drink:
Smoky barbecue ribs are a cracking match here, with the wine's spicy, ripe fruit notes playing nicely alongside those rich, caramelised flavours.
