Cabalie Rouge*

Fabulous southern French Grenache packed with super velvety raspberry fruit and herby spice richness

Tasting Notes

Take a minute to read online reviews for Cabalié. This one is typical: “It is simply, utterly, indescribably fantastic.” Its secret? It’s crafted by the internationally acclaimed Hervé Sabardeil in the ancient vineyard region of Roussillon.

Using largely Grenache, with additions of herb scented Syrah and scented Carignan, Cabalié has impressive concentration. That’s due to the maturity of the vines, which include some of France’s oldest Grenache. The tiny berries they produce give Cabalié extraordinarily rich, ripe flavours.

Boasting 12 medals in five vintages, this now legendary wine is in its element with a slow braised beef casserole.
