Description
Grape: 55% SYRAH, 45% GRENACHE
Alcohol by volume: 14%
WINEMAKING NOTES
The whole bunches went through 3-4 weeks maceration carbonique in a sealed tank beneath a layer of CO2. Pressing took place before the end of alcoholic fermentation; then aged in French oak.
TASTING NOTES
The Syrah gives the soft, rich dark bramble fruit with some white pepper, while the Grenache contributes some cherry and strawberry character and some additional spice. These flavors are complemented by subtle vanilla & coee notes from the oak casks. The brilliantly presentend wine is the richest and most complex of all the Grand Noir wines and the one many serve at special dinners or to oer as a gift.
