There is plenty of ripe dark fruit to be found in this New World style of Cabernet Sauvignon.
Deep ruby red, expressive ripe cassis with smoky and peppery hints. Rich and spicy on the palate with pleasant tannins and some coffee at the finish.
This wine is made by leading international winemaker, Xavier Roger, who is based in Carassone in the South of France. Xavier specialises in making modern ‘international’ styles of wine in France—wines that can be enjoyed with or without food. It is the limiting gravel soil and the naturally low yielding which are the perfect conditions of the Languedoc-Roussillon region for producing rich, concentrated, ripe grapes.
