Domaine. Vines planted in 1908 in Les Argillières, bottled 24 April 2023, 598 bottles produced, 12.5% ABV. Unshowy, layered and deep, profound even, noticeable but refined oak enhances the complexity and provides warmth, everything in perfect harmony, impresses immensely without trying to.

A blend of 60% Garnacha, 30% Tempranillo and 10% Viura, 48 months in neutral American oak and 48 months in bottle. Orange colour with tawny reflections; clear and fresh style, needs time in the glass to open up, balsamic, candied fruit and spices, dried orange, hints of cold tea and sweet oak on the finish.

From a 0.17 hectare parcel, 50% whole bunch, 12 months in older wood, a moderate 12.5% ABV. Double decanted. Wonderfully fresh and energetic especially for a 2020, very pure (blue) fruit expression, orange zest and violets, well-delineated and relaxed, effortless precision, elegant weight, paper-fine tannins, excellent persistence. Lives up to the hype.

Fermented and matured in new barriques for 14 months, RS 165.3 gr/l, TA 7.9 gr/l, 11.5% ABV. Pale tawny colour, honey, spices, strawberries, hint of tobacco, Alpine herbs, intense and concentrated but fresh and bright rather than overly sweet, mature and stylish.
