This week I picked up a bottle of 2010 Clos des Fées Les Sorcieres at my local wine shop, Brix South End, and I’ll admit I initially picked it up because I loved the label; it seemed appropriate considering Halloween is just a couple weeks away.
The wine is a blend comprised of Syrah 50% and Grenache 30 % and Carignan 20 %. Du clos De Fees les Sorcieres has a heady nose when you first pour it and a deep red hue that calls to mind some of the fruity characteristics you’ll taste when you first try the wine, but it is lighter than it looks and has a relatively soft finish.
The wine is going to appeal to most people and would pair well both with a dinner or on its own (as I enjoyed it on my couch). While I will enjoy this wine year round, it would be great to bring to a Halloween party. If you live in the South End you can pick it up at Brix wine shop for $18.99.
