Le Carignan de la Source
Fond Cyprès (Languedoc)
Carignan • 2021
The 2021 vintage in northern Corbières was quite difficult with quite a lot of rain and unseasonable cold resulting in a few problems with both frost and mildew. This lead to lower yields, but Rudolphe and Laeticia managed to keep quite a bit of concentration in the grapes. The Carignan was destemmed and left for four weeks of maceration before aging for one year in large foudre. Structured tannin with lively dark fruits and a touch of spice, this wine is perfect for rich meat dishes on cold winter evenings.
