Domaine Combe Blanche Minervois La Chandeliere

The Domaine La Combe Blanche ‘La Chandelière’ Minervois La Livinière * is classically Minervois in character with its old-world style and minerality. A complex nose invites you in, well structured with rich rustic fruit layered over an array of complex Syrah and Grenache flavors. This wine is a lovely fall wine and will pair well with rich stews and wild game meats. Give this wine some time to breathe to fully expose its full potential.

The nose has subtle notes of game, iodine, lavender and blackberry, which follow through oto the palate. Suave and supple tannins pair with medium acidity and evident glycerol, making this an easy-drinking red. It has integrated yet high alcohol, and the short finish points to a drinking window of two years.

This cuvée is in the image of the great wines of Languedoc, rich, powerful, while combining balance and finesse. Its aromas of spices, pepper and wild red fruits blossom in the mouth with concentrated, liquorice and subtly vanilla notes.
