Spicy wines: character, richness and aromatic intensity

Spicy wines are prized for their aromatic complexity, distinctive character, and ability to enhance flavorful dishes. Whether red, white, or rosé, these wines develop typical notes of black pepper, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, exotic woods, or licorice . These aromas often result from naturally expressive grape varieties or from carefully controlled oak aging. The "Spicy" collection from Vins de Carole offers intense, warm, and flavorful wines, ideal for those who appreciate bold aromatic experiences.

Spicy reds: depth and structure

Spicy red wines often come from grape varieties such as Syrah , Grenache , Mourvèdre , Malbec , or Tempranillo . They offer silky tannins, a beautiful structure, and a long finish with aromas of sweet or peppery spices. A signature selection:

Côte-Rôtie or Saint-Joseph made from Syrah
Châteauneuf-du-Pape with hints of garrigue and spices
Ribera del Duero or Rioja Reserva (Spain)
Californian Zinfandel with notes of cinnamon and pepper

Perfect with grilled meats, tagines, Indian dishes or dishes with spicy sauces.

Spicy white and rosé wines: finesse and exoticism

Some white wines , particularly those made from Gewurztraminer , Viognier , or Chenin Blanc , exhibit notes of sweet spices, ginger, or saffron, often linked to slow fermentation or aging on lees. Spicy rosés (made from Grenache or Mourvèdre) can also reveal intense aromas.

Gewurztraminer (Alsace, Germany) – notes of ginger and cardamom
Viognier (Rhône, Languedoc) – nutmeg and white flowers
Structured rosés from Provence – white pepper and garrigue herbs

Serve with exotic dishes, Asian or spicy cuisine, tagines, blue cheeses.

A profile for lovers of character

The wines in this collection are chosen for their ability to combine intensity and balance. Their spicy aromas are fully expressed with aeration; consider decanting them 30 minutes before serving. Serving temperature: 16-18°C for reds, 10-12°C for whites.
