Cabalié (magnum) 2017

Pays d'Oc IGP

A mouthfilling, richly spiced red with an illustrious, medal winning history, Cabalié needs no ceremony. Just large glasses for serving! It’s a Grenache charged red from very old Roussillon vines, so has gorgeous spicy berry fruit in abundance.

Take a minute to read online reviews for Cabalié. This one is typical: “When my time comes to shuffle off this mortal coil, this is the wine I want in that final glass. It is simply, utterly, indescribably fantastic.” Its secret? It’s crafted by acclaimed international winemaker Hervé Sabardeil in Roussillon, where ancient vineyards abound. Grenache with additions of herb scented Syrah and peppery Cinsault, Cabalié has impressive concentration. That’s due to the maturity of the vines, which include some of the oldest Grenache in France. Their tiny berries give Cabalié extraordinarily rich ripe flavours. Boasting 12 medals in five vintages this now legendary wine is in its element with a slow braised beef casserole. Here in 1.5 litre format.

"Delicious – rich and smooth. Simply put, this is a very easy drinking wine!" Online Reviewer
