Carignan wine, deriving from an old Mediterranean grape, boasts a robust and spicy appeal. It is typically deep ruby in colour, with a high tannin content contributing to its strong, rich taste. Its vibrant flavours encompass notes of ripe fruits like blackberry and plum, interspersed with hints of pepper, spice, and occasionally, earthy undertones. Aged versions take on a smoky edge that accentuates its complexities. The wine's reputable acidity makes it perfect for blending, especially with Grenache and Syrah. Consumed at a young age, Carignan reveals a lively, fruity charm while time bestows it with an elegant, sophisticated depth.
