La Bette

Jeff Carrel's La Bette is a Languedoc-Roussillon red blend anchored by Syrah (50%), Grenache (35%), and Carignan (15%)—a classic southern Rhône structure. The wine opens with dominant dark cherry and blackberry fruit, supported by black pepper spice and herbaceous garrigue notes typical of the region.

Medium-full body and balanced tannin make it approachable yet structured, with earthy undertones emerging on the finish. A versatile food wine suited to grilled meats, Mediterranean dishes, and tomato-based preparations.
