Tasting note

Spicy wine from an admired village in the southern Rhône, bursting with blackberries and perfumed with liquorice and sloe.

In the press

92/100 - Violets and blackberries, very ripe, juicy and appealing. Good structure, pure fruits and a long finish. Very well balanced, very well made. Destemmed fruit. In conversion to organic. Drinking window: 2025-2030.
