Healthy, happy grapes are hand-harvested from very old vines built on the classic pebble-y soils (associated with neighbouring Châteauneuf). The wine is fermented using the native "wild" yeasts and is then aged in French barriques (225l) and demi-muids (600l) for a total of 18 months.
This is rich, intense and drenched in dark red fruits. With morello cherry and a touch of cinnamon spice on the nose, soft dark plummy fruit, liquorice, chocolate, a hint of black tea on the palate, this wine is full flavoured and smooth with supple tannins.
