Les Deux Rives Corbieres Rouge 750 ML

The bright nose leads with aromas of crushed granite, damp forest floor and baked boysenberry cobbler drizzled with cassis liqueur. This is medium-bodied, with integrated alcohol and very little glycerol. This robust red has focused acidity and pleasantly tugging, broad tannins. Squeaky-clean fruit and smart winemaking make this a curiously rambunctious yet polished wine.
