The specific terroir of this site – 1946 bush vines planted in a 1.7ha block of deep, ancient sand – offers a compelling vintage story worth following. There are undeniable signature notes of rich satsuma plum, dazzling fresh raspberry and a hint of clove, but its fragile beauty always shows vintage variation. This year, the excitement is in the finish – with deeper, darker blackberry notes bound in biting black tannins that hang and persist. It provides a complexity that strikes almost at counterpoint to its long, silky mid-palate, but that’s why this Grenache expression is so special.
