Light, translucent ruby in colour, with a deep core of fruit. The aromatics are lifted and pure: dark cherry and red berries intertwined with pressed rose petals and a subtle Turkish delight note. Underneath the fruit lies a savoury, herbaceous layer suggesting roasted herbs rather than green tones. The palate is light-footed yet intense, showing juicy, concentrated red and dark fruit supported by fine, powdery tannins. A gentle citrus nuance, reminiscent of Negroni orange and pink grapefruit zest, lends a sophisticated edge to the finish. Refreshing, supple and highly drinkable, with enough complexity to reward attention.
Blend: Grenache Noir (56%), Shiraz (39%) and Cinsault (5%)
