Fantastic wine. A blend of Syrah, Mourvedre and Grenache. Silky smooth with medium tannins. Flavours of blackcurrant, blackberry & toasted notes. Worth buying a case. (note to self - this was the Club Gascon wine). 13% alcohol. Retails in the uk for £22, which is good value.

Winemaker's Notes:

Tasting Notes: Deep sustained, limpid and brilliant red colour. The nose, intense and very fine, of crystallised undergrowth fruit (blackcurrant, blackberry...) which breath out their flavours immediately. The discrete oak brings torrefaction notes. The mouth with a frank attack is fat and very dynamic. Percentage Grape: Syrah, Mourvèdre, Grenache Soil: metamorphic stones from glacial deposit of the Montagne Noire, gravely clay schist, slightly acid Date of Harvest: 2004 Type of Harvest: Harvested manually Vinification Method: Harvested manually, the grapes are de-stemmed; vinification and maceration take place in stainless steel vats for 20 to 25 days. Manual "pigeage" (traditional: the grit caps are being punched manually), 18 months maturation (50% new oak barrels) Alcohol Percentage: 14.5 %
