The wash is a complex grippy array of dark currant, cool cherry, cassis and bitter chocolate. |
Liqueurs commonly made this way include triple sec, cassis, Cointreau, Grand Mariner and so forth. |
Dry, rich, peppery and positively rippling with tannins, there are flavours of cassis, raspberry, mustard and aniseed. |
It was a perfectly competent but fairly ordinary magret with a parmentier of confit and a cassis sauce. |
Frankly, this ripe, spicy, cassis and berry-fruit red with a fine gamey finish is one of the best on the block, so tuck in. |
We lived on no sleep, cigarettes and sugar, with an occasional dash of sirop de cassis in our champagne for vitamins. |
