Fine carignan grapes are the secret of the popular BLAIREAU. The badger (= blaireau), who lives on the edge of the Mas des Quernes winery, has now unfortunately been shot by trigger-happy French hunters. With the label we remember this nice roommate. Carignan is experiencing a real renaissance among connoisseurs. With a tamed yield level (old vines naturally do this), the wines delight with structure, fruit and lively freshness. In times of climate change, varieties with a touch of acid are again in great demand. And alternatives to the mainstream wines made from Merlot or Cabernet provide a welcome change.
