Description
In a nutshell:
Savour the character of the Languedoc - ripe black fruits, a whisper of oak, all wrapped in smooth elegance.
The lowdown:
Here we have blackberries and a hint of peppery spice on the nose - that's this lovely Languedoc red. The grapes come from the well-respected co-op in Faugeres, where the vines grow on rocky soils and catch plenty of sun (but cool down nicely at night). The winemakers keep things old-school with concrete tanks and just a bit of oak aging. The result? A smooth, easy-drinking red with vibrant fruit and a touch of warmth on the finish.
The Producer:
Mas Olivier embodies the spirit of Faugères with its roots lying deep in the region's history. Beginning as a grower's collective way back in 1959, the co-op now shapes over half the appellation's output, earning a reputation for quality along the way. Their vineyards enjoy the best of both worlds: Mediterranean warmth tempered by elevation and ample rainfall. Their commitment to sustainable practices is there to see and shows in their expressive wines which balance ripeness with character while keeping an eye firmly on value.
When to drink:
Open this ripe red with a hearty casserole of beef or lamb, or alongside a well-seared, juicy steak.
Suitable for Vegans
