12th Sud de France Top 100 event sees region’s increase in fine wines (The Buyer)

My final pick didn’t get a trophy, and I think it was robbed! Mas Bruguière L’Arbouse AOP Pic-Saint Loup 2022 (RRP £20 to £29.99, Yapp Brothers) is an oaked blend of Syrah, Grenache Noir and Mourvèdre. The wine is a plump expression of black cherries, blueberries and raspberries too. Hints of garrigue, nicely integrated grainy tannins and a fresh feel from start to finish.
