Dark, brooding fruit mingles with cedar, dried herbs and cracked pepper in this compelling old-vine expression. The palate shows impressive concentration while maintaining a sense of freshness that keeps you coming back. Firm tannins provide structure without overwhelming the wine's natural energy. Lioco has crafted something special here. Proof that Carignane deserves serious attention.
