A blend of 70% Grenache and 30% Syrah which sees no oak. Fruit is sourced Mont Redon's own vineyards located across the river from Chateauneuf du Pape, near Lirac. It also includes a proportion of declassified Lirac fruit. Opaque dark red black colour with a vibrant dark red hue. Inky black raspberry and liquorice aromas are followed by some earth, faint incense and spice. Medium weight and slightly chewy in its mouthfeel the palate has savoury ripe dark cherry and dark raspberry flavours with traces of liquorice also present over some incense infusions and spice. Bright finish with slightly dryish but otherwise fine grained tannins and an aftertaste of ripe dark cherries, dark raspberries, subtle liquorice and spicy incense infusions. A charming Cotes du Rhone with plenty of freshness and delicious bright fruit.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
