This is Gros' "great terroir" wine, one that benefits from a unique vein of limestone à la Burgundy. "La Ciaude" is a blend of Grenache, Syrah and Carignan—and the Carignan vines date back to 1914. Mineral energy combines effortlessly with an extraordinary rich and layered mouthfeel—this wine has volume and depth, and fantastic concentration without sacrificing balance. Vines face South, and as such get the full power of the sun, adding to the wine's saturated, sultry personality.
