Tasting notes
Deep garnet red with purple tints. A complex bouquet of jammy dark fruits, sweet spices, scrubland and licorice. The full and generous initial mouth-feel releases smooth tannins and a remarkable aromatic complexity. The exceptionally long finish reveals spiced and toasted notes. 70% Syrah & 30% Grenache
Description
This wine’s vineyard is made up of old plots planted in Agly in the north of the Eastern Pyrenees. The vines are planted on hillsides of brown schist, with plenty of sun and wind exposure to encourage the grapes to grow.
Vinification
The plots are carefully selected depending on their yield and health, and the ripeness is checked by tasting the grapes. The Syrah and Grenache are processed separately, both grapes being destemmed and crushed then macerated for a time that depends on the extraction levels. 50% aged in vats and 50% in barrels for 8 months.
