Superb dark ruby red colour with garnet highlights. Still young, the fruit of the grape vine is present, although tertiary aromas quickly reveal themselves; hints of truffle, garrigue and smoked meats on a background of vanilla. The wine is very racy; the Grenache tends to evoke Pinot noir deftly adding elegance to power. The tannins are supple and velvety. Although young, it delivers true pleasure.

The makers story

In 1988, Marie Lucile Brun took over management of the estate, succeeding her mother, Juliette Avril. Her son, Stephan Brun, joined her in 2000 to head the estate's commercial, administrative and viticulture departments. As early as 1928, before the Appellation of Controlled Origin (AOC) was officially introduced, Juliette Avril's father, Jean Avril, participated in establishing fundamental rules for developing Chateauneuf-du-Pape wine.
