"Languedoc Nugget
Adorned with its beautiful purple color, this cuvée is essentially marked by Carignan. Voluminous and juicy on the palate, with aromas of cherry, blackberry, violet, garrigue and licorice. Complex and generous, this cuvée delivers powerful tannins in a well-controlled balance that brings freshness and pleasure.
