| CAYROL VIEILLES VIGNES CARIGNAN 2022 IGP Cotes Catalanes |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
DOMAINE LAFAGE |
| This 2022 is the fifth Vintages release and the best to date. Deep purple in colour, it has a very attractive, gently spicy, intense, complex, ripe, black-cherry-cassis-raspberry-plum nose with some minerally, sandalwood notes. Dry, medium-plus bodied and nicely textured, the slightly spicy, ripe, cassis-raspberry-plum flavours are followed up with a lingering, bright, gently complex finish. This 100% old-vines Carignan has 14.5% alcohol and under 3 g/L residual sugar with lot number L24068A on the lower part of the glass bottle. Delicious, versatile and ready-to-drink, it will pair very well with bbq ribs,steak and roast beef. |
