Description:
Organic. A concentrated red with a sweet, complex, fruit cake bouquet. On the palate, big firm tannins are backed with intense plummy fruit. Superb balance and style, a very ripe vintage.
Organic. A really fruity example from an area better known for its reds. Made from Clairette, Bourboulenc and Chardonnay it has clean herbaceous fruit with aromas of honeysuckle and sweet plums. Its lemony sherbet flavours are mouth-filling. A real find. (12 x 75 cl)
A potent and warm wine, with a dazzling rich purple colour. The nose is an expressive blend of liquorice, pepper and red fruit. Spicy flavour with a hint of vanilla. Goes well with game & venison. (12 x 75 cl)
Full, juicy, brambly, Grenache and peppery spice fruits, a ripe full palate with good balancing tannins and soft acidity, on a good length finish. (12 x 75 cl)
This wine is a blend of Grenache blanc 30%, Bourboulenc 30%, Ugni blanc 30% and Roussanne 10% and once the grapes are in the winery they are lightly crushed, then pressed in a pneumatic press, prior to clarification of the must and cool fermentation. This takes place in vats for 90% of the blend, with 10% fermented in new oak barrels with lees-stirring. This wine is a bright pale yellow colour with hints of green.On the nose green fruit, corn and hazel-nuts give way to a soft, balanced wine. (12 x 75 cl)

The Aquarelle is the watercolour on the label painted and this old vine Mourvedre, Grenache and Syrah is aged in large foudres for at least 6 years. This has resulted in a smooth, mature cassis and plum flavoured palate with hints of cedar wood and spice.
From 30 year old vines this wine is a blend of hand harvested Grenache 65%, Syrah 25%, Carignan 5%, as well as a little mourvedre and cinsault. This has produced a ruby cherry coloured wine with a red fruit nose also showing blackcurrants, blackberries and pepper. The aromas follow through onto the palate as the intense flavours are complemented by the enjoyable finish. (12 x 75 cl)
