Description
This relatively young family owned Domaine was created in 2001 by vignerons with 4 generations of vinegrowing and winemaking expertise under their belts. They own some seriously old vines in superb sites in the Southern Rhone on a mixture of soils of red sand, clay and the classic ‘Galet’ pebbles associated with Chateauneuf du Pape. As a result, their wines posess a wonderful depth and concentration.
60% Grenache and 40% Syrah from 80 year old vines are hand harvested and then fermented in a mixture of stainless steel and old oak barrels, before blending and then ageing for a further 12 months in large demi-muid barrels. This is a terrific wine which manages to expertly balance power, elegance and finesse – the hallmarks of great southern Rhone reds. Stunning value.

It starts fresh and then develops balsamic notes and scents of graphite, before becoming more mellow in character with a rhubarb and menthol note. The palate is voluminous with fine-grained and silky tannins on the finish.
