"Fruity and spicy
"The 2017 Côtes du Rhône Villages Seguret Tradition is full-bodied, creamy and lush on the palate, yet remains lively, energetic with a long finish. It's fruity and spicy, with notes of mocha, clove and allspice lingering on the finish. The blend is 65% Grenache, 25% Syrah and 10% Carignan." (Wine Advocate - Joe Czerwinski) A fine introduction to the estate's wines.

Rated 16.5/20
About the wine:
Well-developed, integrated aromas of spices and herbs. Soft attack, very polished texture with pleasant freshness. Good drinkability, pure fruit typical of the southern Rhône. A job well done! Excellent balance and persistence. No exaggeration or heat.
