Domaine Lionnet Rien Que du Carignan 2021
A revelation: 95-year-old Carignan vines from the schist slopes of Saint-Chinian, bottled for only the third time from this ancient half-hectare parcel. Punchily spicy yet beguiling in its purity, this deeply mineral expression flirts with elegance, offering raspberry, redcurrant, and a whisper of dried cranberry. Fermented naturally and aged in used barrelsâpure, uncompromising Carignan that demands discovery.
