Cotations
Dégustation
Oeil :
black and purple
Nez :
the wine is intense on the nose and expresses a great deal of complexity and fine nuances, with delicate restraint: aromas of black fruits, spices (liquorice) delicately allied with more mineral, bloody notes. The final impression is one of more smoky aromatic notes (fireplace, soot, etc).
Bouche :
on the palate, the wine is full and finely structured by coated tannins. The mouthfeel is powerful, well-balanced with lovely freshness and a lingering finish.
Cépage(s) :
Syrah, exclusively.
Vendanges :
By hand.
Sol :
Granite and granitic sands. 30 year old vines, gobelet-trained and trellised on stakes in traditional fashion. Southeast facing slopes, enjoying excellent exposure to wind.

In wooden tank. With three weeks in vat. Traditional vinification. Gentle extraction by pumping over
Elevage :
Aging is carried out in concrete vats to fully preserve the mineral expression of this wine from selected vineyards.
