Grape varieties

40% Syrah, 40% Carignan, 20% Grenache noir.

The best vineyards are selected and picked by hand. Carignan undergoes carbonic maceration for approximatively three weeks. The Grenache and Syrah are destemmed, crushed and undergo traditional maceration for over four weeks.

Ageing

In tanks for several months before being bottled at the estate.

Description

Serving suggestion
