"Equal parts Carignan, Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah. Still with the quirky old-style 'bugs or aliens?' label - artwork done by Charles Stratos, an internationally acclaimed contemporary artist from Provence . . . . the Carignan is from old vines. Generous warm fruit on the nose. Very juicy, rich dark fruit and dancing with life. Spice and liquorice. Rounded and so fresh."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
