Corbiere Les Lanes La Baronne 2018

Introduction

Still relatively unknown in the New World, the wines of Languedoc-Roussillon are the best-kept secrets. At Château La Baronne, the traditional grape varietal, Carignan, is the basis of the great Languedoc wines. Grown in a terroir of clay-limestone and sandstone, the owners of the château believed that a wine with great personality emerges from old vines that are painstakingly cared for.

Blending Grenache with Carignan- the 2 signature grapes from the region of Languedoc-Roussillon, Corbières “Les Lanes” signifies power, spice and earth.
