Cinsault

Wine Glass Zinfandel.jpg
Serve in a Zinfandel Wine Glass
Cinsault is a red grape planted widely in the south of France and Corsica. It has a vibrant, fruity nose with soft tannins and good acidity. This makes it beautiful as a rosé, an early drinking red quaffer, or as a blending component to add fruit and freshness to heavyweights such as Grenache.
