Château Malherbe Rouge 2022 Review
Southeast of Marseilles along the southern coast of France is Bormes-Les-Mimosas, a coastline zone of the AOC Côtes de Provence and home of Château Malherbe, a polyculture farm that was converted to vines in the 1960s. Though U.S. consumers might be more familiar with rosé wines from this region, this bottle makes a great case for the reds. This is a classic blend of Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Grenache. It brings subtle notes of leather and cured tobacco along with brambly red and blue fruit and a hint of oak. The mouthfeel is excellent with soft, elegant fruit and quiet yet present tannins.
