This darkly coloured, unfiltered red is blended from the domain’s oldest Syrah vines, with 15% each of Grenache and of Carignan. It has the richly luscious, almost porty fruit aromas typical of the appellation, alongside a balsamic note. On the palate the wine is dripping with damson, huckleberry and blackberry richness, and those fruits have a gratifyingly perfumed style.
