Product Notes

Domaine Lafage Nicolas is a lavish, full-bodied red wine hailing from the Côtes du Roussillon region of France. This wine marries the depth and complexity of old-vine Grenache, the structure of Syrah, and the vibrancy and freshness of Mourvèdre. It boasts bold black cherry, dark plum, and spicy undertones, accentuated by a surprising hint of white pepper. Maturation in French oak barrels adds a complimentary layer of vanilla and toasty oak nuances to the finish. A gem among its peers, Domaine Lafage Nicolas is versatile and always a welcome guest at any dining table.
