Louis-Antoine Luyt Legno Duro Carignan 2014 

Purple color but you can see through. Nose of cherries, fresh mushrooms, earth and some spices. On the palate the fruit is so pure, true, there is no “makeup“, it’s good, juicy, enjoyable. The flavors goes from red berries to spices, while also showing earth notes, all with a great depth. There is wine in there, but it’s not heavy, there is acidity but its not biting. Also have lenght and balance. This is litterally to me a Grand natural wine because it has everything you want but the flaws. Excellent (91)

Made of Carignan from 70 years old + vines. Natural winemaking and aged in tanks. Alcohol level of 13%

Available at the SAQ for 27,85$ (Code SAQ : 12940972)

Domaine de la Rectorie Collioure Côté Mer Rosé 2014

Watermelon juice color. Fine and subtle nose of red fruits with citrus fruit and salty notes. Tastier on the palate, it charms! Far from being a sugary rosé, it’s even better with grilled dishes. Serious, deep with red berry flavors, roses, it’s salty with just a touch of aromatic herbs and spices. Came in late in my summer, otherwise I would’ve had many bottles of this. Very good+ (90)
