I actually haven’t had this wine but I had the 2020 Pierres Noires and the 2020 ADN and they were rich and spicy #rousillon #grenache

Vintage 2015 - a very nice every day wine with sweet grenache smell and spicy smooth taste. Dangerous, because you drink glass after glass after glass with a lot of joy. Partnered with Coeur de Boeuf tomatos filled with minced meat from the oven #roussillon

Nothing spectacular, but definitely nice with a french lunch if you like more full bodied reds at all hours.

Smell: english cooking sauce. Light sweetness, some vanilla.

Medium body. A little acid. Short finish.

This is a bold, full red. A tad raw but it does benefit from breathing. At 15% it's pretty punchy.
