Domaine du Silène - Grande Cuvée 2004

Coteaux du Languedoc|Red wine
The estate owes its name to the discovery of an ancient clay seal depicting the head of a Silenus. This Grande Cuvée, a blend of Syrah and Grenache, has matured under ideal conditions and offers lovely spicy, distinctly Mediterranean aromas (hints of garrigue) with plenty of freshness. Don’t wait to try it!
