  The top of the line Cuvee from Jean Royer shows a strong floral essence that is perfect for all the sweet, ripe, fresh, red fruits that define the wine. Creamy, polished, lush and pure, the wine was made from 100% old vine Grenache from vines located in the La Crau lieu-dit. With a bit of aging, this could score even higher. Drink from 2022-2035.
