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

Review by Mr. THIBAULT F. Published on October 18, 2017

A wonderful discovery. I wasn't familiar with either the AOC or the Monastrell grape variety. The fruit notes dominate, and the Syrah adds a touch of spice.
