“Pretty Roussilon”

“Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre make up this wine, which evokes the scents of the garrigue and orchards. Its lovely fullness on the palate leans toward fruit, with mineral, well-integrated tannins. The wine is balanced and delicious, offering the Mourvèdre’s leathery notes with finesse on the finish. A simple winemaking process that reveals the terroir of Les Aspres. ” (La Revue du Vin de France - June-July 2020)
