Mas Mudigliza , Carmine, Roussillon, France
Tasting note:
A sturdy red with ripe blackcurrant, black olive, vanilla and sweet spices. As you might expect from these grape varieties in this part of the world, this is chunky. Chunky and grown-up, though decant it and exercise a little restraint and it'll open up into something rich and spiced and decadent but also fresh and fruit-filled. It's definitely a food wine.
Producer:
The Bond-villainesque (in name, not character) Dimitri Glipa is the winemaker and operator. He spent his early years in Bordeaux and decided to apply his expertise in this part of France.
Vintage: 2020
