Hugh Johnson’s Pocket Wine Book features Vieilles Vignes Carignan as one of the top 12 wines to try in 2026!
He beautifully describes it as: "This is a longstanding favourite of mine, and I still don’t understand how something so silky, savoury, herbal and layered can be so inexpensive. The vines are over 50 years old, and old-vine Carignan has enormous character and depth. Tourelles makes wines of poise and freshness, utterly modern, fine and long-lived."
