Producer tasting notes: "The estate's flagship cuvée, always at the top of international rankings. The robe is dark with purple reflections. On the nose, the still discreet aromas of crushed black fruits and garrigue are just waiting to melt into a noble and fresh substance, to reveal finesse and elegance on the palate." - Domaine de La Janasse

- Vineyard Notes
-
This cuvée comes from four parcels located on different terroirs which complement each other in the blend (rolled pebbles which bring fatness and power; sands for freshness and acidity; red clay covered with rolled pebbles which brings structure and body; and finally a sandy-limestone hillside which gives finesse). The vines are grown without pesticides or insecticides and the manure is natural. The land is worked without weedkiller to maintain ventilation and flexibility of the soil.

2008 Vintage
Tasted: Dec 2014
When to drink: 2014 to 2022
Starkes «Brett» in Bouquet und Gaumen, seidige Struktur, Aromen von Brombeere, Veilchen und Lakritz, feine Süsse, ausgesprochen präsente Säure, die diesen ungewöhnlichen Wein enorm saftig macht. Jetzt sehr gut zu trinken mit entwickelter, sauberer Sekundärfrucht. Feine, nussige Tannine im edlen Finish.

Current condition: Likely past it
The 2008 vintage for the Rhône Valley was unusually poor.
The growing season was disrupted by heavy rains and temperatures oscillated wildly, making for a delayed and difficult flowering, which inevitably reduced yields. The damp weather prompted outbreaks of mildew, wh...
