Médaille d'Or

Concours Paris

“Grenache (70%), Syrah, and Carignan—a classic trio for a top-tier cuvée. An intense red color with garnet highlights. An exhilarating nose of blackcurrant, blueberry, spices, and garrigue flowers. On the palate, it is both powerful and silky, dense yet tender, long and very fruity, built on a smooth, velvety tannic structure. Truly Rhône-style, whether young or aged, it’s sure to delight.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2016)

Review by Mr. ANTOINE C. Posted on May 1, 2020

It might be a problem with the bottle, but it’s already too old and starting to turn to wood; I still have a bottle in the cellar, so I’ll have to check.
