(2016 Vintage Notes)

This blend of 70% Syrah and 30% Grenache reveals a complex and harmonious nose with notes of lavender, garrigue, blackcurrant, and a hint of black pepper. On the palate, it displays impressive body, full-bodied and round, offering a concentration of jammy black and red fruit aromas and a bouquet of garrigue notes. A concentration of Languedoc flavors!
