Château d'Oupia Les Hérétiques

$15.99

A blend of Carignan and Syrah. The Carignan vines average 40 years in age, with some of them being up over 100 years old. Half of the Carignan is vinified traditionally in old barrels while the other half undergoes carbonic maceration. A fruity, youthful red wine you can enjoy with pizza.

Les Hérétiques is named in recogntion of the Cathars, a heretical Christian group once based on the Languedoc but wiped out by order of Pope Innocent III in 1208 in response to the murder of a papal representative by a Cathar supporter near Minervois.
