This blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre has 14% alcohol and 3 g/L residual sugar. TONY ASPLER / 88-points - Cedary, red berry nose with a spicy oak note; medium to full-bodied, dry, firmly structured, lean and sinewy with lively acidity. Lacks the heft of most Chateauneufs.

TASTING NOTE: Mild plum red robe. This has a typical 2014 aroma of lightly sweet red berry fruit, a joli plump ball of coulis fruit at its centre. The palate is also soft, plump, quietly stylish, and easy to drink. There is a slight \"high\" note to the red fruits. The tannins are well absorbed. 14°. Early wine - from mid 2016. 2024-25.
