An open nose with notes of red fruit and spices. Complex on the palate, with fine, silky tannins.
With a brilliant and intense colour, this midweight Côtes-du-Rhone doesn’t disappoint. A nose of typical Rhône dark fruits (blackcurrant and blackberry) is accompanied by strong hints of spice, pepper and herbs.
The winery has been owned since 1993 by Pascal Maillet and his family. Soon after graduation, Pascal, who majored in computer science, decided to settle in at the winery and produce his own wine. He has since planted new vines and invested in brand new equipment for the cellar in order to improve the vinification process.
