(2016 vintage notes)

Cet assemblage de 70% Syrah et 30% Grenache dévoile un nez complexe et harmonieux respirant la lavande, la garrigue, le cassis et une touche de poivre noir. La bouche présente une extraction de matière impressionnante, ample et ronde, elle nous livre un concentré d'arômes de fruits noirs et rouges confiturés et un bouquet de notes de garrigue. Un concentré de saveurs du Languedoc !
