Domaine Sainte Croix Magneric

$18.00

Varietal Birthplace Year
Carignan Languedoc-Roussillon 2006
This wine is made in a lush fruit-driven style with Old World intrigue. Carignan makes for the slight majority of this blend, providing structure, robustness and deep, earthy notes of cassis and black plum. The Grenache and Syrah add character, balance and complexity. Deeply flavored and roundly textured, this red blend has polished tannins and ripe blackberry fruit with accent notes of black olives, green herbs and fresh lavender.
Red currant, black plum, light smoke, allspice, earth.
Domaine Sainte Croix’s 32 aces are owned and operated by the English husband-and-wife team of Jon and Elizabeth Bowen, who gained winemaking experience around the world before they decided to devote their lives to the under-realized potential of Corbières. Arid, rocky and remote, the terrain is the very vision of classic southern France—craggy cliffs and stony hillsides are dotted with gnarled old grapevines, fig and olive trees, and wild herbs. The region’s wines have been revitalized under a new generation of winemakers like the Bowens who are quality-driven producers.
Stews, ragouts and other braised dishes of poultry, duck, veal or lamb will make great textural complements to this plump wine. Accent flavors of Mediterranean herbs and olives, as well as sweetly pungent ingredients like garlic and onions will play to the wine’s savory side.
Magneric is named for the hilltop parcel of old-vine Grenache that’s one of the more expressive components of this wine.
