Chateaux Clarettes, Mistral Noir, 2019

Château Clarettes

The 2019 Château Clarettes Mistral Noir is a rich yet approachable southern French red, built with ripe Merlot and shaped by the warm, sun-drenched conditions of Provence.Juicy black cherry and cassis lead the way, with hints of spice, earth and a touch of vanilla. The palate is smooth and rounded, with soft tannins and a generous, fruit-driven finish.Made from 100% Merlot, this is a slightly more sun-kissed, Mediterranean take on the grape - offering ripeness and softness while still holding enough freshness to stay balanced.Easy and versatile. Great with grilled meats, lamb, or simple pasta dishes, but equally enjoyable on its own.
