Domaine Cabirau Second Effort Maury Sec 2021
94 POINTS! Maury might be known for its port-style fortified wines – but this CdP Rouge look-alike absolutely SLAYS – at a price that seems downright impossible!
ONLY $14!!! Take that, Monday!! Maury Sec, good people! 20 miles from the Mediterranean, 20 miles from the Spanish border, where ancient vines thrive on black schist soils. 62% Grenache, 38% Syrah – and a price you can’t get ANYWHERE else! You could be the ultimate vinous spy/wine operative and still expect to pay DOUBLE than our fine price today – without having to remember all the code names and spy lingo to boot!
Domaine Cabirau’s “Second Effort” is actually the flagship cuvée of the estate – from up to 70 year-old vines that sit in the shadow of the historic Château de Quéribus, the last Cathar stronghold and one of the “Five Sons of Carcassonne” that defended the old French border from Spanish invasions a few centuries back. Go on and Google it – it looks like a castle from Monty Python’s Quest for the Holy Grail – and one sip of this inky dark and totally beguiling beast has me every bit as giddy as a Camelot showtune. Black olives, and smoked meats, with crushed berries of all shapes and colors – black currants, and raspberries, strawberries and boysenberries, with a hint of fig jam, and this cooling mint and fresh herb sensation that makes this *POP*! It’s so reminiscent of Châteauneuf-du-Pape it's scary – ‘cause I’ve yet to see a CdP that can hold a candle to this sort of value. Way, WAY more complex than any $35 bottle has any business being – but when you slash that retail by a full 60% LESS – this is sure to go in the all-time, steal-of-a-deal, Last Bottle Hall of Fame!
We loaded up on every single bottle we could buy – even reached out to the winery to make sure they didn’t have a personal stash lying around somewhere – but at our simply CRAZY price…you better believe this is going to FLY!!!
Load up! Beat the Mondays back to oblivion with a $14 club of vinous excellence!
