Matt Parish & Benjamin Darnault La Co-Operative French Red Blend 2020
About the wine
A France-meets-Napa dream collab
- This blend of Cabernet and Merlot is flush with flavors like juicy plums and bright berries. Harvested from Ben’s pocket of paradise in the Languedoc-Roussillon, it's topped off with Matt’s finesse and Napa oomph. Magnifique!
- Thanks to Angel funding, Napa legend Matt Parish took a sojourn to visit Minervois expert Ben Darnault where they crafted this Cabernet blend to showcase the best vineyards in southern France and Bordeaux.
- La Co-Operative brings together the best of Ben and Matt – a French red without the expensive price tag. Everyone needs a little joie de vivre in their lives, n’est-ce pas? Treat yourself!
