Grape(s): Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault
Region: Languedoc-Roussillon
Vintage: 2020
Nestled in the heart of Corbieres, on the remains of an old Roman winery, Domaine Faillenc Sainte Marie is a testament to winegrowing in this valued region. This particular bottle of Syrah, Grenache and Cinsault is a real beast. It’s big. It’s bold. It’s rich. This rustic wine goes through a long maceration period and doesn’t even touch barrels, remaining in tank while aging. Relish in potent notes of freshly squeezed blueberry, violets, and southern French herbs. Reward yourself with a bottle after spending 12 hours gathering every ounce of flavour from a hearty beef stew. You’ve earned it.
