“The older sister of the Constance vintage”

"A blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Syrah, and 20% Carignan, the 2017 Dentelles offers aromas of mint tea, crushed pepper, and ripe cherries. On the palate, it is crisp and fresh, combining bright red fruit with notes of fresh herbs at one end of the spectrum and dark chocolate at the other.” (Wine Advocate 2019 - Joe Czerwinski)
