Le Corbeau

Le Corbeau Wine Details
Price: $42.00 per bottle

Description: Le Corbeau (The Raven) is a hauntingly beautiful Grenache, made in the style of the seductive and expressive wines of the Chateauneuf du Pape region of the Rhone Valley. This saturated ruby-colored wine has alluring aromas of raspberries, kirsch liqueur, dried herbs and hints of smoke and bacon. On the palate, it exhibits flavors of black raspberries, plums and an intriguing earthiness followed by silky tannins and a long lingering finish. This medium to full-bodied wine possesses great acidity and depth. It is best enjoyed after an hour of decanting. Or simply pour a generous glass and enjoy as its delicate yet powerful aromas and flavors unfold. This gorgeous wine will age beautifully for the next 7-10 years and will pair nicely with braised pork, duck, lamb, venison, wild mushrooms, cassoulet and fowl.
