Brilliant garnet red color. Red fruits and spices on the nose. The mouth reveals rounded tannins (thanks to the stay in the oak barrels), a warm and full-bodied wine with an uncommon and lasting aromatic intensity. The proof that Cotes du Rhone can be a serious and elegant wine.
This wine had soft smells of wood and dampness. It was warm in my mouth at first but finished very tangy an spicy on my tongue.
