Tasting Notes

Blend of Grenache/Syrah/Mourvèdre and Cinsault. This is mainly aged in concrete tank. The Grenache being very susceptible to oxidation. Sophie Armenier prefers using large tanks to keep the purity of the fruit. As with the past few years the quality here is superlative and very few Châteauneuf can compare to this fabulous example of purity and complexity. Lovely nose - pure with supple mouthfeel - rich without excess - a touch of spiciness and garrigues and nice acidity. This is a great success trademark Marcoux. Drink 2009 – 2015.
