A Rhone blend of 75% Grenache and 25% of Carignan, Cinsault, Counoise and Clairette. Nicolas Renaud made a great job on this complex and extraordinary blend. The estate is organic certified, spontaneous fermentation in Vats. Nicolas uses a minimum amount of Sulfites and the wine is unfined and unfiltered. The color is a semi-intense ruby red, with orange nuances, gave to the fact that is a 2012. The nose is catchy and complex, with red fruits and liquorice bouquet. The palate reminds to the fruity nose, with soft and round tannins, that convey in a warm and lingering finish. Very recommended to all the lovers of Cotes du Rhone blend and not.

A brief spark of spice that very quickly went flat but it does go well with the chicken.

Solid without anything more. Easy to drink but falls a bit flat.

Ben c'est bien ça! Bien tendu, un peu piquant, un peu petillant. Parfait avec mes petites sardines et mes gnochis courgetted epinards...
