"A grenache, syrah blend from the southern Rhône valley. Dense red with decadently sweet plum, cocoa powder, black-peppery, violet, truffle and spicy oak flavours. A mellow, mouth-filling wine - a truly impressive drink" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Jul 2019

Deep, brilliant garnet. Intense with notes of black cherry, plum and liquorice, mixed with hints of torrefaction and fine spices. Powerful, full-bodied, with velvety tannins. Notes of cocoa and mocha, mixed with hints of dark fruits. Long aromatic finish, with hints of spices and plums.

Grenache, over 40 years old, north-west facing at 530m. Syrah, 30 years old, south-west facing at 540m. Argilo-calcaire (clay and limestone) and very stony. Double cordon de Royat, 6 shoots per cordon.

Food Pairing: Enjoy with roast beef, venison, duck and roasted vegetables. Decant for 2-3 hours and serve at room temperature. Aging potential: 15-20 years.
