Tasting Notes
Elegant and Côtes du Rhône were not used in the same sentence much a generation ago; but this GSM (Syrah dominant though) is tops for elegance, texture and balance. Imagine smells and tastes of black cherry fruits, softer spices, then delightful long chalky tannins to finish. Decant for an hour before please. Background oak & alcohol (14.5%) support only. So elegant! - Michael L
A name which means the wine left for us to drink after the angel share. The grapes come from Ampuis area, declassified Cru Cairanne and also Rasteau fruit. Mostly de-stemmed, traditional vinification. 70% Syrah, 20% Grenache, 10% Carignan. Aged in very old barrels of 228 litres. Low sulphur. Black fruits, concentrated wild berries, spices, dark chocolate and a slight earthiness. Beautiful acidity and pure with a saline finish. - Importer Note
