Note di degustazione
A vintage the estate is excited about as they loved the quality of the Syrah (don't forget that Ventoux is quite a ways from the Rhone Valley and have their own climate), the 2014 Ventoux la Quintessence is 80% Syrah and 20% Grenache aged in a combination of new, once and twice used barrels. Medium-bodied, pure and elegant, with lots of pepper, flowers, cassis and a touch of vanilla aromas and flavors, it needs a touch more polish to its tannin, but it's a beautiful Syrah that will keep for a decade.

Useful back label tells us this is made from Roussanne and Clairette. The claim is that it will age for six years. Pale gold. Really quite rich and slightly oaky on the nose. Broad and opulent with a very slightly sour edge. Pretty ambitious and distinctive. More forward than the Fondrèche whites. More refreshing than many whites made lower down closer to Châteauneuf but not that intense. Not quite as exciting as some vintages. (JR)
