Tasting notes
Deep ruby color introduces a powerful nose of dark berries, wild herbs, and Mediterranean garrigue. The palate showcases ripe blackberry and plum flavors interwoven with black pepper, dried thyme, and subtle notes of leather and earth. Medium to full-bodied with firm, structured tannins and a savory quality characteristic of Mourvèdre. The finish is persistent with lingering spice and dark fruit, showing rustic elegance and regional typicity.

About this wine
Famille Pierre Gaillard's Domaine Cottebrune Transhumance is a full-bodied red wine from the Faugères region of Languedoc-Roussillon, crafted from a carefully balanced blend of Carignan, Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah. This wine exemplifies the producer's commitment to expressing the terroir of southern France, where Mediterranean warmth and ancient soils create wines of character and depth.
The blend showcases firm tannins and black fruit characteristics with subtle herbaceous notes, creating a wine of complexity and restraint rather than excess. At 13.5% ABV, it strikes an elegant balance between power and finesse. The Transhumance is ideally suited to rich, savory fare, from grilled meats and lamb to beef dishes and traditional charcuterie. It also pairs beautifully with hearty pasta preparations, making it a versatile choice for both casual gatherings and refined dining occasions.
