“Transparent crimson. Sweet start with a minerally undertow. Serious, spicy, concentrated wine. Already delivering pleasure and real length.” – Jancis Robinson
Despite the great quality and value offered, Saint-Chinian has long been an underrated appellation. One of the up-and-coming producers in the area is Jean Lacugue and this Château Milhau-Lacugue, located 12 kilometres east of Béziers, at Puisserguier. The domaine is set on south-east facing limestone hills surrounded by olive groves.
A blend of Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault and Mourvèdre, this wine is juicy and warming, yet fresh and lifted. Aromas of black cherry, bramble, strawberry, mocha, exotic spices and walnut oil dominate the nose and palate. A brilliant, easy drinking cuvée best enjoyed with pasta, cold cuts or venison. This fabulous expression of St-Chinian was highlighted as “good value” by Jancis Robinson, and it’s not hard to see why at this price.
