Description:
Chateau Mignan lies on the upper terraces of calcareous clay of the Minervois La Livini̬ere in a tiny and typical Southern French village called Siran in the Languedoc region. These exceptional wines are a perfect expression of the particular terroir and old vines found in this part of the Languedoc. Quality and elegance are the intrinsic characteristics here.

Tasting Note:
A delicious dark and intense red. The old vines of Syrah lend a perfumed nose of black fruits. The palate shows powerful peppered accents and is warm and full with velvety tannins that balance the beautiful cooked fruit flavours.
