Note di degustazione
More Syrah-dominated, the 2015 Ventoux la Quintessence (80% Syrah and 20% Grenache) sports a saturated purple color as well as abundant notes of blackberries, blueberries, cracked pepper, violets and smoked herbs. Young, backwards and unevolved, it has plenty of fruit, ripe tannin and outstanding length.

Roussanne and Clairette. Very heady nose with a mix of honeysuckle and flowering herbs. Excellent texture and good acidity with a hint of saltiness. Pretty good balance between sweetness and chewiness. Still a bit too tense – I'd wait just a while for it to relax. (JR)
Tasted as a final blend, the inky colored 2015 Ventoux la Quintessence is a step up over previous vintages, and I suspect it will be the greatest vintage for this cuvee to date. Not harvested until the 18th of October (which is average to early for this terroir... they finished on October 31st in 2013), it has sensational purity and polish, with full-bodied richness, a big mid-palate, ultra-fine tannin and killer notes of creme de cassis, blackberries, licorice and graphite. Count me as a fan and it's anther wine that will see its 20th birthday in fine form.
