Corbieres, St Eugenie


This wine, from Corbieres (Languedoc-Rousillon), had an unremarkable nose and a pinot-like "citrussy" taste. It comes from the foothills of the Pyrenees. Here is a short description that i could find:"Domaine Sainte Eugénie is positioned within the district of Fontfroide, the sweet spot of Corbières, with an 800 year history of viticulture. The estate is located within the foothills of the Pyrénées along the Mediterranean coast. Clay and chalk soils dominate here. The dry weather, sunny and warm climate combine to create an optimal growing environment." The wine is quite pleasant. A 2.
