Red wine

Domaine Hegarty Chamans, Black Knight 2007

RRP £26

Syrah, Grenache and Carignan. The flagship wine has the signature freshness loaded with dark fruit and classic southern French herbs (thyme and rosemary), underpinned by robust tannins. A fine, meaty, smoky wine, just in balance, a certain heat mitigated by a fine dry finish and an intense wash of juice.
