16 February 2004 2000 Minervois, Domaine des Acanthes J-M Arnaud, Languedoc-Roussillon, France £6.15, Haynes Hanson & Clark Big, powerful red, full of the richness of plums and sultanas and streaked with the rasping smell of herbs. And you're just about to say – very good, big chunky red then, when, is it just me, or can I taste the self-conscious beginnings of the very slightest scent of violets?
