 | GEOLOGY Marnes sombres feuilletées et calcaires du Lias. | |
 | VARIETIES Carignan and Syrah. | |
 | WINEMAKING Carbonic maceration is practiced on the Carignan while the Syrah follows a more classic vinification with destemming. The vatting lasts three weeks. After blending, the alcoholic fermentation ends in French oak barrels. Aging lasts twelve months. | |
 | SERVING TEMPERATURE Between 15 °C and 18 °C. | |
 | TASTING EYE: dark red. NOSE: elegant, slightly vanilla, offers aromas of prune that give way to some scents of thyme and juniper. MOUTH: jammy plum flavors with hints of vanilla and garrigue. Rather supple tannic structure. | |
 | WINE & FOOD PAIRING Cassoulet, lamb shoulder with thyme. | |
