Fruit leads when young, while lambic character becomes more prominent with bottle age. Serve cool with duck, charcuterie, washed-rind cheese, dark chocolate or cherry desserts.

Mas Gabinele 2015 Belandes Minervois
$49.99Medicinal herbs, liquorice and dark forest berries shape a savoury, distinctly southern French nose.
