Côtes du Rhône
Grande Réserve
Terroir
Syrah, grown in the pebbly, gravely soil of the right bank of the Rhône, is the perfect partner for Grenache, grown in a terroir of clay and limestone.
Winemaking
Harvest starts only once the grapes have been tasted and have attained the desired balance of intense aromas, a deep colour and good structure. Each bunch is hand picked and vinified in stainless steel tanks to keep the fruitiness and the freshness of the grape varieties. The wine is then aged for 9 months in old foudres to accentuate its exceptional aromatic complexity.
Tasting notes
This deep-coloured wine reveals delicious aromas of blackberry, raspberry, and gamey overtones. Excellent concentration on the palate is enveloped in velvety tannins, with a pleasant freshness on the finish.
