Less than 300 cases made each year. This wine is so limited that the wine is usually sold out before it can be reviewed!

90% Grenache planted 1904, 1940s,
1977 and 2001, 15% Mourvèdre planted early 1980s and 5% Cinsault from sandy, stony soil at Courthézon, Sorgues, destemmed, concrete vat-fermented 25 days, raised 5-6 months, unfined and filtered.

Dark purple in the glass, with a spicy nose full of blackberry, fresh flowers and savory aromatics of fresh herbs thrown on the grill. Black fruits persist on the layered palate along with lavender, olives and licorice. Think of this as a mini-Chateauneuf-du-Pape, not a Cotes-du-Rhone. Medium to full-bodied, with bright acidity keeping it fresh.
