The Story Behind the Bottle
What kind of winemaker ages their red wine 200 metres underground in a river running through a vast chasm beneath the mountains of Carcassonne? Sylvain Delabre does – and the result is wowing staff and customers alike. Chasm de Cabrespine 2019 is a bold, spiced Minervois made from handpicked parcels of Syrah and Grenache. First aged in clay amphorae for deep, brooding flavour. Then bottles are left to rest in the most perfect ageing conditions imaginable. No light, perfect humidity and pressure. We call it extreme cellaring. It took four hours to retrieve a single bottle for tasting. But what emerged was something extraordinary: a rich, spiced southern French red with six years maturity delivering lovely spice and a long complex finish.
