- Tasting Notes
Initial notes of white flowers on the nose, such as jasmine, honeysuckle and vine flowers can be felt and then opens with fruitier nuances of apple, pear and peach. A few notes of fresh almond and frangipane complete the bouquet.
In the mouth, the cuvée reveals more complex aromas: dried apricot, hazelnuts, honey and sugar candy. Silky textures give the wine its personality, elegance and character. The aging has imparted particular depth and power to the wine.

SOMMELIER'S NOTE
The 2017 vintage delivered exceptional heat and sun across the Rhône, yielding a Châteauneuf-du-Pape of remarkable concentration. Garrigue, dried herbs, and dark olive intermingle with ripe cherry and leather on the nose. On the palate, this wine is generous and warming, with a long, spiced finish that speaks eloquently of southern France.
