  Like the Chapoutier Barbe Rac this wine is made with grenache. The nose as open as the Rac Barbe with notes of richer cherries, cola, and spices. On the palate it is sweet at the beginning with floral notes, red fruits, spices and a very long finish but it disappointing because it ends on bitter notes. And it heats up a bit.. between this and the Barbe Rac without hesitation I would choose the Barbe Rac

  The thyme and Provencal herbs stick out here. That bushel of herbs is quickly followed by luscious, silky, sweet, ripe, peppery red fruits, finishing with a velvet textured layer of more red fruits. The wine is made using 100% Grenache grapes.
