Grenache, a great grape: what wine does it make and which to drink?
Grenache is one of the world’s most planted grape varieties, but it is often used in blends, e.g. “GSM” (grenache, syrah, mourvèdre). It deserves more attention on its own since it can make outstanding wines of all colours and types, red, white, rosé, dry, sweet, even sparkling. I have, on several occasions, participated as a […] Continue reading: Grenache, a great grape: what wine does it make and which to drink?

Pros and Cons of a Champagne and Alsace Combo Wine Trip

Domain Paul Mas Coté Mas Syrah 2024
From the south of France comes this Syrah that delivers stylistic simplicity. It opens with an aroma that immediately brings to mind a chocolate brownie packet mix before darker notes of blackberries and blackcurrants emerge. A thread of granite-like minerality moves throughout while a fine veil of black pepper delivers the variety's signature. The palate is straightforward but good enough, led by dark fruit, cocoa dust and a savoury edge that adds a little extra interest. Drying and puckering tannins draw a tight line through to the finish, offering a quiet nod to ensure that food sits by its side. A hearty meal would soften those edges and allow the fruit and savoury elements to settle into a more comfortable groove. In all, there’s a simple pleasure to be found here. 88/100 Region: Languedoc, France RRP: $18 Source: Sample Subscribe to Qwine here Follow: Instagram , LinkedIn and X

This method effectively is bleeding off juice that is macerating on the grape skins as pigmentation is building. So rather than, say, a soft ... Read more
