Château St. Jacques d'Albas Albas Rouge 2021 AOP Minervois Organic , 0,75 L

We are always on the lookout for wines like Albas Rouge, which offer immense drinking pleasure without straining the budget. Thanks to the super-ripe grapes from Minervois, this wine achieves that perfectly. Syrah and Grenache, the region's hallmark grape varieties, are combined in a cuvée that's truly enjoyable.

The wine has a very dense colour with delicate violet reflections, still quite youthful. On the nose, it presents an abundance of red fruit, a hint of stony minerality, violets, and a touch of herbs.

This herbaceous note, known as garrigue, refers to the typical Mediterranean herbs that grow abundantly in the area.

The palate seamlessly continues the impression from the nose, with beautiful fruit flavours that are accessible and harmonious. It makes for a delightful everyday wine, perfect with Mediterranean dishes, barbecues, or even home-cooked meals.

Albas Rouge is a highly "quaffable" red wine from the South of France that delivers great enjoyment and feels like something special. It's a serious red wine that will also delight connoisseurs.
