This awesome Côtes du Roussillon Villages has amplified aromas of squeezed black cherries, with just a touch of prune juice. It is vibrant, sumptuous, honest and delicious, with a wealth of fruit character and hints of cured meat and rusty nail underneath. There is fresh acidity to balance all the concentration and ripeness, bringing about a well-proportioned whole. Simply impossible not to love. What a cracking wine!

Winemaking
Hand-harvested into small crates with a first selection as the bunches are cut, and then a second sorting of grapes at the cellar door. The fermentation is kept between 20-23°C to maximise the fruit expression and the wine is macerated for 4 weeks with both pumping over and pigeages. 60% of the wine is matured in newand one wine oak barrel during 6 months.
Press Review
92/100 - Such a dense, packed and generous red blend of grenache, carignan and syrah. The nose shows notes of blackberries, cassis, roasted meat, dark chocolate, dried thyme, bay leaves and baking spices. Full-bodied with creamy tannins. Compact with generous berry character and plenty of spices toward the long and focused finish. Drink or hold.
