Chateau De Paraza Les Baronnies Minervois 2010, Ac Minervois Bottle
Chateau De Paraza Les Baronnies Minervois 2010, Ac Minervois

$12.75

Great wine, however, I found myself distracted as it reminded me more of a Grenache-dominant Rhone GSM blend than a Languedoc-Roussillon. Tasted January 2015.

Very safe Shiraz that will not disappoint when you have guests, but don't expect a very complex wine. Tasted April 2014.

I agree with David, this is a very dense wine, full-bodied and quite sweet with some heat due to the 15% in alcohol ! Enjoyed it very much. Tasted August 2015.

GSM blend from the Midi but with not much complexity and no length. OK as an everyday wine, but don't expect to wow any guest with this wine. Tasted January & June 2015.
