Paul Cathare syrah-merlot-cabernet 2015About the only place in France where you get the "Aussie Blend" of shiraz and cabernet is the watershed between the Atlantic and Mediterranean at the western end of the Pyrenes. Here the Limoux appellation produces ageworthy reds from a blend of both, plus merlot and carignan sometimes as well. This excellent producer is drawing on his Cathar heritage very strong in this area to produce a dense, concentrated red that with a little age is now beginning

but most don't have any oak ageing

this is Brut - so properly dry - and is ideal for canapés and light seafood dishes

ceviche or even sushi

He felt they were not focussed enough on quality

Elegant stone fruit and some citrus

It's a traditional technique using local Abruzzese cherries

Loves all kinds of fish

but also some delicious golden apple fruit and and a touch of cashew oak

fresher citrus and apple than the lowland examples

but also has some subtle detailing that make it really interesting

with even some similarity in the soils here and there

with a touch of pinot bianco here and there
