A wine of great depth and delicacy, with a complex nose and notes of black fruit... A palate that’s rich, yet not overly effusive, and marked by its finesse. A wine in perfect balance, with lots of freshness, almost Burgundian in style. Cellar it and forget about it for a few years.
A blended cuvée of Carignan, very old vines planted in 1905, and of Carignan and Grenache Noir, planted in 1960 on a superb terroir of gneiss and black mica, facing North.

Vinification: fermentation and infusion in barrels, soft pressing, 20 months of aging in a 10-hl wooden vat. An unfiltered wine, with 1 g/hl of sulphur at bottling. One hectare in production, so only 1320 bottles!
