Wine of the Month
Castelmaure, Corbières Rouge Grande Cuvèe
2020
Languedoc-Roussillon
France
93 Points, Tim Aiken: “All de-stemmed and aged in barriques, 25% new for one year. More intense black cherry, strawberry and kirsch notes with some wild herbs from surrounding garrigue. Serious structure with firmer tannins, high acidity and a long,
mineral finish.”
91 Points, Jeb Dunnuck: “From small yields and a
blend of 55% Syrah and 45% Grenache, the 2020 Grande Cuvée Corbières is similarly deeply hued yet has a deeper, richer, more powerful style in its ripe black cherry and darker berry fruits, chocolate, peppery garrigue, and savory herb-driven aromas and flavors. It’s medium to full-bodied and has a balanced, layered, opulent mouthfeel and a great finish.”
This rich and powerful wine stands up to foods with big flavors like grilled steak, beef stew, rack of lamb and cheeseburgers. Also great with stuffed mushrooms and eggplant Parmesan. On your cheese board, serve it with Cheddar, Smoked Gouda, Pecorino and Asiago.
