It’s a blend of syrah and mourvèdre, spiced with the refreshing tang of a Mediterranean breeze and the herbal intrigue of Provence’s famous garrigue.

In town, at Hodonin's Masaryk Museum, I received a tour of the exhibits devoted to Tomas Garrigue Masaryk, the local boy who went on to become the founding father of Czechoslovakia at the close of World War One.

Owen: Made by Patrick Lesec, this wine blends mourvèdre, syrah and grenache, a cornucopia of red fruit flavors, black licorice, cigar box, black olives and garrigue.

This Lirac from La Rocalière, a red blend based on grenache, shows black fruit flavors and a gritty sense of stone, with hints of violet and lavender garrigue.

There’s a wild herb note of garrigue and some bright cherry with a rich, velvety texture.
