Predominantly dark fruits and liquorice with hints of cassis and a background black olive note. A real mouthful, lots of fruit and spice with robust structure. A classic Chateauneuf. Made in the traditional way, with 80% whole bunch fermentation and ageing in large old oak foudres. A blend containing 70 % Grenache 10% Mourvedre, 10% Syrah and the rest is made up of Counoise, Cinsault and white varieties.
