Such joy to try new wines! Never had Gramenon before. Biodynamic produced and Demeter certified, partly destemmed and fermented with indigenous yeast and aged for 12 months in oak, this wine is FUNKY! Reminds me more of Beaujolais than Rhône. Very intense and concentrated juicy grape fruit. The taste is likewise very intense with neat and pretty forrest strawberries. Don’t buy this wine if you’re looking for power - but if you’re into Rhône wines in general and are longing for new adventures - go ahead!

14.5% abv. Pale ruby purple hue. Dried flowers, black and red currants gummies, smoky, roasted meat, garrigue, pungent white pepper. Ripe chewy tannins on palate but surprisingly very elegant, quite smooth, a bit airy and focus. More bright red fruits and mixed sweet & pungent spices. Bit earrth. So lovely. Give it 2-3 years.

Effervescent on first pour but gone by day two. Classic and composed for a CdR…on the more acidic side, plenty of fruit but still restrained, with some stony mineral notes. A bit early to drink perhaps. Favorite from among the 2019s we tried.

Rich, delicious, big cranberry fruit, excellent structure, ample finish, high acid, a little spritzy

Une bombe de fruits, violette, très aromatique et expressif, se boit tellement facilement, frais, assez riche mais sans excès, très beau. 90-91
Gorgeous wine, drinks so easy, full, rich yet fresh and elegant, amazing for the level.
