"A blend of grenache, syrah and cinsault. Intense, ripe and rich Gigondas with decadent dark fruit, black pepper, dark chocolate and leather flavours. A big, complex wine that is accessible now but no rush" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Sep 2021

The aromas are of black fruits along with red fruits join the flavours of garrigue and black olives. Powerful tannins blend into a long finish. 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Cinsault.

The grapes are vinified in whole bunches in concrete tanks. The vatting lasts a fortnight with gentle extractions. Aging takes place for 70% in vats and for 30% in barrels of several wines.

Food Pairing: Pair with leg of suckling lamb with thyme flower, ratatouille, Provençal tomatoes, lamb tagine with prunes.
