Note di degustazione
Deep ruby. Musky blackberry, candied plum and smoked meat aromas. Fresh and racy on the palate, showing red and dark berry flavors underpinned by juicy acidity and framed by silky tannins. Finishes on a spicy note, with excellent length. Chave vinified with a portion of the stems "to help increase the fragrance."

Component from St. Jean de Muzols: Pungent, floral and black fruit-driven, with intense cassis, licorice and botanical herb elements. From Mauves: Aromas and flavors of minerals and bright red fruits, with solid underlying structure. Should make an excellent blend. J. L. Chave Selection is Jean-Louis Chave's own project, based in a new chai near the family cellar. The quality here is very high and the wines provide a taste of the Chave style at a much more affordable price. "I'm trying to make the old style of Saint-Joseph," Jean-Louis explained, invoking the name of the legendary Raymond Trollat.
