Les Chiens Catalan Rouge 2021

Description

From the northern Catalan region, more usually described as Roussillon, deep in southern France, comes this delightfully fruity field blend of Carignan and Grenache.

A deep cherry red with burgundy highlights. Slightly smoky on the nose, the grenache adds its trademark black berry flavours and a hint of garrigue whilst the Carignan gives this vibrant colour, lovely tannins and fresh acidity. Cranberry, strawberry and raspberry are evident as well as subtle floral notes such as rose petal and violets. Good length and tannins.

Pairs beautifully with roast pork or chicken with roasted root vegetables.
