Notes : Gold Medal Concours Général Agricole Paris 2013, Gold Medal Concours des Grenaches du Monde (Perpignan)
Gran de Granacha shows a fine balance between fruit, smoothness and freshness, thanks to the altitude of its plots. An expressive wine of ripe red berries, with jammy cherry and raspberry aromas. A pure expression of Grenache...

Note and review by M. ROMAIN G. Published on 22/05/2016
Gran de Granacha is a vigorous wine, pleasant on the palate, very typical of red Grenache. I find it a little too alcoholic - on balance, I prefer Terraventoux from the same house.

This wine is a little rough, but promising in 2-3 years. Good value for money
