Description:

Deep ruby-red with violet highlights and an expressive, complex nose of blackcurrant, blackberry, sweet spices, garrigue herbs and a touch of liquorice, showing classic southern Rhône character from old, sustainably farmed vines. On the palate it’s round and velvety with generous dark fruit, balanced acidity and soft, integrated tannins; Mediterranean herb and spice notes intertwine with fruit and give a savoury edge. The finish is long, persistent and pleasantly fresh with lingering black fruit and spice, reflecting the structure and depth of this Vieilles Vignes Rhône blend. Pairs well with barbecued ribs, pork tenderloin, and wagyu steak.
