Chateau Rigaud Faugeres Languedoc-Roussillon, 2016

Located on the schist-based soils of Faugères in the Languedoc-Roussillon, Château Rigaud is a collaboration between Claude Gros and Jean Paux-Rosset, vinified at a facility associated with Château de Negly. Old vine Syrah and Grenache form the foundation of this Rhone-style red, with bright Syrah red fruit and peppery spice leading the way. Darker notes of black fruit and plum open up on the mid-palate, for a wine that balances ripeness with vibrancy clear through the finish. Enjoy with dry-rubbed ribs with a tangy sauce!
