Note di degustazione
A new Côtes du Rhône cru, promoted in 2016. This was Wine Advocate’s second highest scoring Cairanne in 2015, actually beating the efforts of many of the vineyards who provided grapes for it. Predominantly Grenache from 80-100 year old vines. Lovely herbal notes with black pepper spice, black fruit, velvety tannins and superb freshness. Apr 2017, FINE+RARE

A new addition to the portfolio and from very old vines, the 2015 Cairanne looks to be outstanding, with terrific notes of lavender, garrigue and flowers grounded by a core of darker berry fruit. Rich, seamless and downright polished, it’s a no-brainer purchase that will offer tons of pleasure through 2025. The blend is 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Mourvèdre, aged all in concrete tanks.
