Château Les Palais 2004 Cuvée Tradition Red (Corbières)

Country: France / Languedoc-Roussillon
Variety: Rhône-style Red Blend
Winery: Château Les Palais / Cuvée Tradition

Velvety textured and full in weight with moderate tannic presence, this wine is powerful while remaining immediately approachable. Black cherry, blueberry, menthol and iris aromas lead into the palate of stewed red berries, pepper and eucalyptus leaves. A lingering finish of muted thin mint closes beautifully.
