Corbières

Our second vintage on the estate is extremely encouraging. A wet winter followed by a hot, dry summer gave us grapes that were plump, luscious and well balanced. The nose is complex, spicy and fruity in a register of red fruit with discreet touches of menthol. This is pure pleasure in the mouth, with perfectly integrated tannins, Syrah that fills the middle palate and Grenache that adds polish to the ensemble with a delicately fruity touch. A blend of a high-altitude parcel with another cool climate altitude terroir to give an out of the ordinary Corbières, far from the stereotypes of this appellation. Great for drinking now, but will continue to mellow over time.
