    Tasting notes

    The 2009 Clos Saint Jean La Combe des Fous is a wine of character, ideal for accompanying rich and flavorful dishes. It pairs wonderfully with grilled or roasted meats such as a rib of beef or a leg of lamb with Provençal herbs. It will also enhance dishes with sauces, such as a Castelnaudary cassoulet, duck with figs, or venison with Grand Veneur sauce. For cheese lovers, it will be a perfect match for a truffled Brie de Meaux or a Roquefort. This powerful wine will also shine with typical regional dishes, such as wild boar stew or a Provençal daube.
