The wine is fleshy, ripe and finishes with impressive forest floor sweetness, rounded out by peppery tannins. Think crème de cassis, cherries, and a lovely note of liquorice on the palate, mixed with pepper and spice.
Situated in Domazan, next to the Signargues plateau, the vineyard comprises light clay and sandy soil and the 40 to 45 year old vines are situated on north facing terraces.
Hand picked, the bunches are 100% destemmed, then fermented with natural yeasts and macerated for 15 to 20 days and aged in concrete tank.
