Dom. Rouge-Bleu 2020 "Origine", Carignan Vieille Vigne

Caroline and Thomas decided to divert their best and oldest Carignan fruit to create this new wine in 2019. We were captivated by its purity and contained power. It should earn new respect for an under-rated variety that is capable of greatness in the Rhône as well as the Languedoc (not to mention Sonoma!). The first release sold out in a trice. The new wine is even better!
