Ch. de Fontarèche 2022 Corbières Vieilles Vignes

This full-flavoured but supple wine benefited from the favorable climatic conditions in 2019. A classic blend of carbonically macerated Carignan (40%) and Piquepoul Noir (10%), Syrah (30%) and Mourvèdre (20%), it exemplifies the generous qualities that make the Languedoc, at its best, an incomparable source for interesting wines at challengingly low prices. In this vintage, there is a pulsating blueberry note that derives, presumably, from the Syrah.
