Aroma
An enveloping nose, blending citrus and passion
fruit with beautiful aromatic intensity.
Appearance
Peach-colored hue with a dash of copper.
Palate
Full and round palate, carried by the freshness
of mandarin and enhanced by a subtle touch of
Sichuan red pepper.
Rich and persistent finish, highlighted by notes of
pomelo pith.
Vintage Notes
Spring was mild and rainy but was not
excessively wet followed by a hot dry summer
with cool nights.
Gradual and even ripening, resulted in healthy,
well-balanced grapes with aromatic finesse and
good acidity, providing us with greater elegance
and ageing potential in our wines.
Region Notes
The ninety hectares of vineyards
are split between the AOC’s
eight communes and planted
on marl and limestone soils that
are particularly well suited to
Mourvèdre.
They are composed of two main
climates. The grapes grown in the
valley offer fresher lighter juice
whereas those grown at higher
altitudes on the terraced hillsides
produce wines with more body
and structure.
