  1. George – August 28, 2020

    Bought this wine because of the Wine Advocate score. I was looking for something different as I was bored of drinking the same old wine and this was a good choice. It is well balanced and smooth and it is also just as good the next day.

  2. Tamsin – September 6, 2020

    This is a new producer for me to try and I was not disappointed. Wow! It is a bold red with some delicious plums and black currant fruit. And some nice spicy oak and pepper. I don’t like too much oak, but this was nice.

  3. Claire – September 12, 2020

    There is some lovely ripe fruit in this wine, with some nice spice too. Great colour too. We opened it up as a mid-week treat and had it with a steak and ale pie. It was just right. I haven’t heard of the Terrasses du Larzac region before so I will have to look for some more wines from the region to try.
