The palate is generous and full-bodied, with juicy fruit, supple tannins and a lively seam of spice. Grenache brings warmth and ripe fruit, while Syrah contributes structure and savoury complexity. Enjoyable now for its fruit-forward character, it should develop additional softness and nuance over the next four to six years when properly stored.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine is a blend of 70% Grenache and 30% Syrah from vineyards in the Saint-Gervais commune.
