Description
Intense purple and bright in color. Seductive nose of small red fruits, but also coriander and bay leaf. Fresh and silky, the aromas follow through on to the mouth and are prolonged by notes of liquorice and spices. A friendly, supple wine with well rounded tannins with good persistence. A pleasurable wine which will perfectly match grilled lamb and porc but also fresh tuna, cured meats and fresh cheeses. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre. Old vines, minimum 25 years. Terroir: Ancient Rhoône terraces made up of rolled pebbles on sandy clay from the area of Cairanne and Gigondas. The grapes are harvested manually in small cases. The bunches are destemmed and lightly crushed and then vinified in stainless steel vats. The wine is bottled after being raised for 9 months, 18% in new oak.
