2011 Les Garrigues Grenache Blanc
The Les Garrigues Grenache Blanc is a gentle, oaked wine, with layers of orchard and stone fruit and a fabulous texture. Hand harvested, de-stemmed and crushed, before 12 hours of cold maceration with the skins. Pressed and 80% racked to stainless steel tank, the remaining 20% to 1 year old French oak barrels for fermentation at 17-18C. Aged on the lees for 3 months. The nose shows floral notes, yellow plums, peach and hints of oak. The palate is quite rich and has a lovely texture, with flavors of golden delicious, peach and spice and a fine crisp finish. Tropical and white fruit notes, lead by white peach, guava and mango. Lush, spicy finish features plenty of vanilla and cream. "A pale yellow color, hints of citrus fruit and oak. This expressive wine reveals its full potential on the palate."

2010 Marrenon Syrah Rose "Les Grains"
Special price. Bright pink robe. Very pleasant amyl nose with a fruit drop perfume. In mouth, attack of acid red fruits (redcurrant) and yellow peach subtle notes. With a nice aromatic length, this rose is the typical pleasant wine to be enjoyed with food.
Our Price: 8.97
2011 Les Garrigues Grenache Rouge 2011
From Decanter - "Peppery, attractive raspberry nose. Fruit comes through in the mouth and lingers. A leaner style of Grenache but it works." "A deep ruby red color, this wine is adapted to terroir. It is dense and well balanced with hints of blackcurrant, damsons, and spice."
Our Price: 14.57
2008 Mont Tauch - Reserve de Altitude
Mont Tauch Fitou maintains all the character of Fitou with a fruit driven modern approach and a complexity derived from the mix of terroir and grape maturity. Deep extraction, dark color, full flavor & body. Ripe fruit, spice & vanilla from oak, red berry fruit on the nose. Deeper fruit on the palate. Peppery, with a little acidity to carry it.
Our Price: 14.57
