3*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

"A clean sweep for Vinsobraise, which has three excellent wines in this selection, including Favorite appellation Favorite sole Favorite .’ A blend of Grenache (60%) and Syrah aged in oak barrels for a year, this Excellius cuvée combines intense notes of vanilla, chocolate, and toast with more “natural” nuances of ripe fruit and sweet spices. The palate is majestic, impressive in volume, concentration, and smoothness, supported by silky tannins, perfectly balanced oak, and a touch of freshness that adds a well-defined burst of energy on the finish. Built to last.” (Le Guide des Vins de France 2017) Delivered in a wooden case for any order of 3 bottles of this wine
