AROMAS

PALATE

One of the minor grapes found in Rhône blends and Provençal rosés; Cinsault delivers fresh, punchy reds that are just as floral as they are fruity.

SHORT NOTE

Cinsault is also a charmer through its non-aggressive, soft, fruity aromas. The main notes encountered are peach, raspberry, gooseberry, pomegranate, strawberry and nectarine.

LONG NOTE

Classically, the pairing for Cinsault is escargot. That said, due to the spicy, fruity, and somewhat smoky character of Cinsault, you’ll do better with stew or boeuf bourguignon.
