Natalie's Score: 90/100

A full-bodied, chalky-dry red wine blend of Syrah and Grenache grapes, with Grenache adding extra plushness to the wine. Loads of blackberry, cassis, and other dark fruits and just enough toasty oak. Beautifully textured wine with a vivacious palate. This big red is a flagship wine for the Roussillon region. Good cellar candidate.

Reviews and Ratings

Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

From my favourite producer in the Roussillon, this wine is so layered and complex, featuring crushed rock, black plum skin, cherry pit, cassis, lavender, white pepper, grape must, mineral, and black olive brine. Loads of tactile sensation, this wine never gets boring. 92 Points. Drink now through 2024. (ottawawinejournal.com)
this winery's vineyards are deeply influenced by the Mediterranean Sea, which also provide some of the oldest soils in France for the country. The wine is aged in large oak casks and demi muids (Languedoc traditional barrel of 600 litres) for 2 years. - Winery
