Few people like to vinify 100% Carignan cuvées. Robert Creus produces this Cuvée Léonie from very old vines from the Saint-Christol terroir. With its lovely aromas of black fruits punctuated by hints of spice, this is a wine of solid body, dense substance and melted tannins, sustained by good freshness. A success that can be appreciated today with a fine piece of beef, for example...
