3x Domaine Lafage - Narassa, 2021
From the historic Domaine Lafage estate in Roussillon, Narassa is a luxurious blend of Grenache and Syrah that exemplifies modern French winemaking. This full-bodied red delivers intense blackberry flavors, herbal notes, and hints of cocoa, all wrapped in velvety tannins. Crafted by Jean-Marc Lafage using a semi-ripasso style, it combines the richness of overripe Grenache with high-altitude Syrah to create a wine that's both powerful and elegant, with a surprisingly fresh finish.
3x Domini Del Leone Veneto Rosso
Ranked among Wine Enthusiast's Top 100 Best Value Wines globally and scoring 93 points, this elegant Venetian blend from the Fidora family showcases Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Raboso, and Corvina. The wine offers a seductive mix of black cherry, plum, and wild herbs, complemented by subtle spice from French oak aging. Its silky tannins and vibrant fruit profile create a harmonious balance between traditional Veneto winemaking and modern sophistication, making it a versatile choice for food pairing.
