Muscular, ripe, supple.
There is a stunning glass stopper in this bottle, sadly hidden beneath its capsule, but you can admire it when you open it. Made from Sicily's most important red grape Nero d'Avola, it has a smoky and muscular character with a confiture of sun-ripened black fruits, espresso, grilled meats and spice. Brooding is an apt descriptor overall; it is toasted and earthy, dense and ripe. Sweet black fruit and sarsaparilla lift the palate, it enters with an attractive suppleness and trails powdery skin tannins. Expect great structure and excellent acidity to add levity.
Pair: pastas in spicy tomato sauce, rich meaty dishes or succulent eggplant caponata.

Savoury, juicy, honest
This organic blend of Grenache, Syrah and Merlot is made in the 16th century Chateau de Caraguilhes, which was once part of a Cistercian abbey located near Carcasonne.
Savoury and rustic, it delivers aromas of tangy red fruits, garrigue, leather, tobacco and pencil shavings. The palate is juicy and earthy; with bright red berries, spice, cocoa, tealeaf and earth. It's an honest wine, and best suited to food.
Pair: game meats, aged and crumbly cheeses, hearty eggplant dishes.
