Description

TASTING NOTES
All the richness of this wine is expressed by its
magnificent dark colour with bright tones. The
Grenache brings aromas of spicy candied fruit.
Smooth, full and well-balanced on the palate. The
Carignan adds a touch of freshness whilst the low-yield
Syrah brings the aromatic complexity that makes this
wine so generous.
FOOD & WINE PAIRING
This powerful, well-balanced wine is the ideal partner
for many dishes including a shoulder of lamb with
thyme, pigeon with grapes, meats in sauce and
sweet-savoury combinations such as rabbit with
prunes.
