Production Details Non-vintage blend of several vintages. Grenache vines are goblet-trained and over 40 years old; soils are tilled and planting density is 3,500–4,000 vines/ha. Grapes are harvested by hand and destemmed. The wine is fortified during fermentation while still on the skins, then macerated for 30 days. Maturation comprises one year in glass demijohns outdoors under the sun, followed by at least 30 years in old 350-hL oak casks.
Tasting Notes Light mahogany colour; tobacco leaf, praline, coffee liqueur, toasted almonds, warm spices and aged orange liqueur; lively freshness, a long finish and gentle structuring bitterness.
Food Pairing Aged Comté, blue cheeses, and desserts based on praline or dried fruit
