Agly Brothers Winery Cotes du Roussillon Villages Rouge 2017

A rich purple-driven wine in the glass. A parade of dark fruit compote is accompanied by aromas of crushed violets, mocha, and hints of black olive and spice.

The mouthfeel is equally evocative of this sun-drenched and wild part of France, with muscular black cherry and black currant bound by dark cocoa notes and framed by sturdy tannins.
