"Deep ruby-purple color. The Mediterranean-style nose reveals notes of ripe black fruit, blackcurrant, black pepper, thyme, and rosemary. The classic, warm, toasty palate offers delicious acidity against a fruity backdrop." (Le Guide des Vins 2016 - Gilbert & Gaillard)

Note and opinion by Mr. THIBAULT F. Published on 10/18/2017

A wonderful discovery. I was unfamiliar with both the AOC and the Monastrell grape variety. The fruit dominates, and the Syrah brings a hint of spice.
