The 2016 Nicolas is old-vine Grenache, blended from the vineyards around the winery and higher-elevation sites near Aspres and Maury. It's super ripe, loaded with black cherry fruit that comes awfully close to being chocolaty. Half of this rich, full-bodied wine was matured in demi-muids, while the rest stayed in concrete. Drink this terrific value over the next few years.

Region: Languedoc Roussillon

Languedoc Roussillon is one of the world's most important wine regions, with an annual output which, amazingly, exceeds that of the United States, and which makes up for over a third of France's overall wine production. Languedoc Roussillon is also a hugely important region for wine history, and is widely regarded as probably the first part of France in which grapevines were cultivated, after many were introduced by the ancient Greeks several thousand years ago. The region is renowned around the world for having a dedication to quality which matches the quantity it produces, and the range of wines produced in Languedoc Roussillon is truly impressive, with red, white, dessert and sparkling wines all being made to high levels of excellence within the region.
