Tasting Note

In the glass, it commands attention with a deep, dark black-cherry color, garnet rim, high color density, and slow-moving tears. The nose is magnetic and layered: concentrated ripe dark fruit like blueberry jam, wild blackberry, and dried figs emerge initially, framed by elegant violet aromas. With breathing, the slate soil character reveals itself, releasing notes of graphite, roasted coffee beans, dark chocolate, cedar wood, and a wild herbal undertone of thyme and mint. On the palate, it is broad, muscular, and full-bodied. The entry is warm and impactful, opening up into a velvety mid-palate where firm tannins feel polished and seamless. Carignan’s natural freshness balances the wine's rich power, carrying it into an exceptionally long, mineral finish laden with graphite and dark fruit.
