Domaine du Silène - Grande Cuvée 2004

Domaine du Silène - Grande Cuvée 2004

The estate owes its name to the discovery of an ancient clay seal depicting the head of a silene. This Grande Cuvée, a blend of Syrah and Grenache, has flourished under the best conditions and offers beautiful spicy and very Mediterranean aromas (scents of garrigue) with great freshness. Don't wait to try it!
