Carignan, Grenache, Syrah
Yes
Spicy, Oaky
The best grapes are selected. Grenache noir is vinified in small 50 hl vats. Syrah is vinified entirely in "integral vinification" barrels.
The wine is aged for a minimum of 12 months in barrels before being blended.
Intense notes of black fruit, spices and vanilla. The palate is powerful and elegant at the same time, with a pretty fruity texture and a very beautiful bone structure.
Food and wine pairing: beef steak with shallot, sweet potato chili and red beans,
various cheese platters.

The vineyards of Roussillon are exposed to demanding weather. This is the ultimate Mediterranean climate with its hot summers, its mild autumns and winters and its rainfall concentrated in autumn and spring.
Every other day, the region is buffeted primarily by the Tramontane, a dry northerly wind which promotes outstandingly healthy fruit and reduces the need for plant protection products.
The soils are marked by the uplift of the Pyrenees which has shaped the landform and given rise to myriad vineyard sites with distinctive characteristics. The diversity here is unparalleled.
