I love the Languedoc! Great value! On the nose, a jammed covered wooden crate with dark black fruit. Also slight chalk or earthiness. The palate was definitely not immaculate, but it was smooth - soft tannins, nice acidity, fruit yet dry - typical languedoc! It was a simple wine, but a good one! ... + or - evals...

dark, dark purple with surprising tight plum and tannins, great mouthfeel, loses a bit on the finish, but a steal on the qpr
