Best from 2025–2032
juicy and alive on the palate
Vivid tropical aromas in the nose
Hints of cherry and herb emerge in the glass of this fresher
A lightly tannic and just slightly acidity structure leaves room for the tender red fruits and subtle wood and spice accents
Domaine Courier, IGP Cotes Catalanes, France 2018 Case (6x750ml) Grignolino d'Asti Best from 2025–2032A blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Carignan, the Courier Rouge is medium to deep garnet in color. It needs considerable shaking to wake up notes of kirsch, raspberry coulis, redcurrant jelly, and mandarin peel, with wafts of candied violets, iris, garrigue, and crushed rocks. The medium to full bodied palate is lively and so, so soft with licorice laced red and black fruits and a long earthy finish. 95 Pts The Wine Independent
