Cabalié Family Tasting Notes by Master of Wine, Chris Burr
The classic Cabalie is velvety, soft, fruity Grenache dominant, but given added structure and complexity by the addition of the dark skinned Carignan grape and Syrah in the blend. The result is a harmonious velvety juicy dark berry fruit wine, with a slightly wild herb, spicy, mid palate complexity. It is excellent value for money, lovely on its own and works with all those Southern French dishes such as ratatouille, grilled meats, and an ideal barbecue wine.
More serious in this case is the Vielles Vignes (old vines) Cabalie red. Where the fruit and intensity of flavours is that much more intense and spicy.
