Casseroles

Casseroles

Rich casseroles call for hearty red wines. Crus from the Rhone, Chateauneuf-du-Pape and full wines from the Roussillon excel.

Wines made from old bush vines in the warm Roussillon are perfect with hearty casseroles. Domaine de La Trilles Calignan made from 100 year old vines is great with Cassoulet. A wine made soft by maturation in old oak barrels, it is full and rich. A favourite of mine!

Domaine de La Toupie Maury Sec has intense  sweet fruit flavours derived from very old Grenache grapes grown at altitude.
