2007 Domaine Les Vignerons d'Estezargues Côtes du Rhône Villages Signargues La Granacha

A brilliant 100% Grenache cuvee from old vines, the 2007 Cotes du Rhone-Villages La Granacha Signargues comes from an organically farmed parcel, and is bottled unfined and unfiltered with no SO2 additions. Deep ruby to the rim, with beautiful aromas of kirsch liqueur, melted licorice, ground pepper, and garrigue, it is a superb, full-bodied effort with terrific precision, definition, and concentration. This beauty should drink well for 5-6 years. One of the great values Eric Solomon has long sourced from a well-known cooperative south of Chateauneuf du Pape is Domaine d’Andezon’s Cotes du Rhone, and more recently, their 100% old vine Grenache cuvee called La Granacha Signargues.
