The old vines selected for this cuvée
are mainly grenache that grow in sandy limestone soil on the heights of Vacqueyras.
These century-old vines give us
a long and serene wine
with loads of concentration over silky
and velvety tannins for endless pleasure.
A complex combination of delicacy and backbone,
this truly charming wine is a symphony of ripe fruit, fine spice, vanilla and jammy aromas and flavours.
