It is no longer a village wine from Rozas de Puerto Real

with a concentrated core of vibrant fruit

Domaine La Tour Vieille Banyuls Reserva, Languedoc-Roussillon, France NV Ozeno It is no longer aA superb Banyuls that's made from 90% Grenache and 10% Carignan, the ruby colored NV Banyuls Reserva (which has a portion of the blend vinified outside the cellar; i. e. left out in the sun) offers lots of dried figs and plum fruit, almond, bitter orange, chocolate and sweet spice go to go with a medium to full bodied, rounded, supple and layered feel on the palate. This beauty has loads of character, is perfectly balanced. Wine Advocate
