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.

2022 Shiraz, Grenache, Zinfandel, Silent Noise, Mclaren Vale
Syrah Blend
The SGZ by Silent Noise is an immensely enjoyable wine and is an unsual blend of Shiraz, Grenache & Zinfandel made in a very fresh, approachable style. Upfront, the aromas are boiled sweets and white cherries followed closely by a young vibrant perfume and notes of orange oil. On the palate there's bright red mouthfilling fruit with undertones of savoury dusty dark berry fruits and spice.

2019 Sao Expressiu, Mas Blanc i Jove, DO Costers del Segre
Red Blend
The Sao Expressiu is an intense, concentrated and complex blend of predominantly Garnatxa with Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah playing a supporting role. Red and dark fruits mingle with balsamic notes and herbal undertones. The palate is full and deep yet remains fresh courtesy of some lovely integrated acidity. Although approachable after a decent decant and breathing, this terrific wine will continue to age gracefully for years to come.

2023 Mason Road GSM, Brookdale Estate, WO Paarl
Rhone Blend
The Mason Road GSM is a cracking value red blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mouvedre and Cinsault. This lovely wine shows layers of ripe bramble fruit along with cherry, blackcurrant and plum notes mingling with smoky notes from the oak. Silky, realy well-knit and almost dangerously drinkable.
