For over 40 years, Corbières’ Cave de Fabrezan has proudly made nearly all its reds by maceration carbonique, an exactly and costly method which produces deliciously silky, fruit-filled wines. Bunches of hand-harvested grapes are left to ferment whole and their juice decanted off the skins at the precise moment the best colour and aroma had been extracted. This special Réserve is made from an exceptional parcel of pure Syrah – a dark, velvety, sumptuous red named after Fabrezan’s most famous ‘son’, Charles Cros. Born in 1842, he was a poet (inspiration for the Surrealist movement) and an inventor (for colour photography, the paleophone and what became the gramophone). An exceptional Syrah, it’s brimming with black fruit and pepper.
