Château Virgile – Costières de Nîmes – Rouge 2018

Château Virgile is a lush and concentrated example of a Costières de Nîmes.  The nose is intense with black fruit aromas complimented with hints of garrigue spice.  In the mouth the wine is dominated by dense black cherry flavors from the Syrah. The Syrah is complimented by hints of black pepper and red cherry notes from the Grenache.  The Mourvèdre helps to provide the ripe tannins that give this wine its structure.  Now, for the first time, the addition of Marselan, softens the wine, giving it a lush, juicy character. 

This wine is ideal for barbeque, grilled meats, or simply burgers on the grill.
