Orangerie Rouge

 

Domaine de Rieussec
Orangerie Rouge 2007

Vin de Pays de l'Herault

There is a lot going on in this wine, with lots of fruit aromas and flavours, notably raspberry plums, cassis, raisins, dark berry and cherry, these are complemented by a touch of spice and some nice eucalyptus notes. Lovely rounded tannins, a nice freshness and plenty of length make this a really easy wine to drink, particularly with food. A curious blend, but definitely worth the effort!
