2022 Rāga Cinsault

The 2022 Cinsault entices with an inviting bouquet of ripe strawberries and delicate rose petals, subtly layered with a hint of white pepper and a whisper of lavender. On the palate, it reveals a light texture that envelopes flavors of red currant, cherry, and a touch of cranberry. Vibrant acidity adds freshness and liveliness, while a nuanced earthiness provides depth and complexity. Mid-palate, you might detect gentle notes of herbaceous tea and a slight minerality that enhances its overall structure. The finish is graceful and lingering, with echoes of berry and a faint spice that leaves a lasting impression.

This Cinsault is perfect for picnics, patio parties, or simply savoring the sunset. It is a versatile companion that beautifully complements a range of dishes. Its fruit-forward profile makes it an excellent match for grilled fare such as lamb chops with rosemary, herb-marinated chicken, or a platter of mixed grilled vegetables. It also pairs wonderfully with lighter dishes like a Niçoise salad, roasted red pepper and goat cheese tart, or a charcuterie board featuring mild cheeses, prosciutto, and olives. For a delightful culinary experience, try it with Indian dishes like vegetable biryani, paneer tikka, saag paneer, samosas, or bhel puri enhancing their rich, spicy flavors with its bright acidity, subtle spice, and vibrant fruit notes.
