Spicy aroma. The taste sets in round and soft; the development is full and balanced and the aftertaste aromatic. An excellent accompaniment to grilled lamb or beef dishes. Drink from two years after harvest; shelf life up to five years after harvest.

Pierre-André Ournac is the place to be if you are looking for artisan pure wines that reflect the authentic taste of the region. Like the Cuvée Olric, made from 50% syrah, 25% mourvèdre and 25% carignan from twenty-five year old vines. The wine does not age in oak casks, but fifteen months in concrete tanks. This method of education shows the purest expression of the grape variety, such as the aromas of tobacco, leather and mild spices emanating from mourvèdre. The taste is full, with freshness. The soft, ripe tannins show the great knowledge of the vineyard and cellar. At the competition of oenologists, the Vinalies Internationales, they appreciate this: this wine was awarded a silver medal. Not an artificial wine, but Minervois in its purest form.
