Arrogant Frog Croak Rotie Shiraz 750ml

Description

Arrogant Frog Croak Rotie Shiraz is a French red wine from the Languedoc region in southern France, produced under the playful Arrogant Frog label (part of the Paul Mas family of wines). Made entirely from Shiraz (Syrah) grapes under the IGP Pays d’Oc designation, it’s crafted as an approachable, fruit‑driven Shiraz with some spice and savoury character at a very friendly price point — often vegan‑friendly as well.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Deep purple/red colour in the glass, typical of Syrah/Shiraz from the Mediterranean‑influenced south of France.

• Nose: Initially spicy and slightly leathery, developing blackcurrant, black cherry, and toasted notes with hints of violet and pepper.

• Palate: Medium‑to‑full‑bodied with ripe dark berry fruit, a touch of floral complexity, white pepper spice, and smooth tannins balanced by crisp acidity.

• Finish: Good length with lingering fruit and spice character, making it an easy‑drinking but flavourful everyday red.
