About the wine
.
- Charles Simpson's speciality is taking well know grape vareities in his chosen area of the Languedoc and giving them a little bit of a twist.
- This pure Syrah has all the plummy, jammy fruit flavours that you would expect from a juicy French Syrah, but also has a streak of licorice and smokey oak that you'd expect would be more at home on a top class Rhone red. The combination works, perfectly as does the price tag!
- Take a duck, crisp roast it and tuck in with a bottle of this. Bloomin' marvellous.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Charles Simpson
- Take Simon Templar, drop him and his sportscar in the middle of the Languedoc, and you'll get a vague idea of what's hit the French square between the eyes - namely Charles Simpson, an Englishman abroad, doing ridiculously good things with wine.
- Charles is absolutely nuts about wine - and considering he only started tinkering around with it a few years ago, we reckon he must appear on the gifted and talented list at winemaking college if his trophy cabinet is anything to go by.
- Try his Pinacle Syrah. It's super intense, rudely inexpensive and - in our humble opinion - an absolute winner.
