Description
In a nutshell:
Think Malbec, but imagine it bursting with bright fruit flavours and surprising freshness - that's what you get from this little gem from the South of France.
The lowdown:
This Languedoc Malbec sings with fresh red fruit and blueberry aromas, laced with hints of crème de cassis and violets. Its vivacious personality comes courtesy of the Haute Vallée de l'Aude, where warm Mediterranean days and cool nights coax ripeness and balanced acidity from the grapes. On the palate, it's medium-bodied and vibrant, bursting with more red fruit and a touch of cranberry. A hint of cocoa emerges on the finish. Overall, this is a delightfully easy-drinking red - a true gem with an undeniable touch of fun.
The Producer:
Boutinot, the guys responsible for the Les Volets range, is a big name in the UK's wine scene and are behind many labels seen on shelves up and down the country. Paul Boutinot kicked things off in 1980, starting with importing wines and soon partnering with winemakers around the globe. They've since gone on to produce their own wines from places like the Rhône Valley, Italy, South Africa and many other places. Their secret is in backing passionate winemakers who aren't afraid to push the envelope, always aiming for wines that really capture the essence of their regions. This, along with providing excellent value for money, is something they've really nailed.
When to drink:
This hearty red is a cracker with pizza, sausages, or a good steak pie - and it's just as happy shared out at a picnic.
Suitable for Vegans
