Blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault
The robe is frank with blue-toned colours. The nose unveils burlat cherry and fig aromas with spices such as nutmeg, with cocoa and morello cherry eau de vie notes. The palate carries silky tannins. A freshness in the mouth, combined with complex red fruits, gentle spices and smoky notes.

Beautiful intense robe of purplish ruby color. This wine is clean and bright. Aromas of ripe fruit (blackberries) and hints of leather begin to appear with the undertones of caramel. Powerful in the mouth with a long aromatic persistence. Very present tannins.
Description
Description
North of Avignon on the left bank of the Rhône, the territory of Châteauneuf-du-Pape extends over 5 municipalities between Orange and Avignon. It is a succession of clay-limestone plateaus with the famous rolled pebbles which allow the vines to resist the drought of the Mediterranean climate and the mistral.
The area of our AOC Châteauneuf-du-Pape vineyard is 20 hectares. It is spread over the three main terroirs of Châteauneuf-du-Pape: rolled pebbles, urgonniens and sands. This diversity contributes to obtaining the aromatic complexity of our wines.
