Marvelous #structure #aromas of #blackberries and #cassis #charred oak. The berry bush in the most subtle and elegant way. Pleasantly surprised by this wine. I believe it has great aging potential. Great now and will be smooth and more complex in the future. — 9 years ago

Low on the radar and I hope it stays that way as enjoyable as this wine is.

From seaside vineyards, the plots lie within direct sight of the Mediterranean in some cases or are towered over by the palisade like cap Canaille which forms part of the coast in Cassis.
The aroma is of stone fruits, fresh white spring flowers, fennel spice, all accented salty sea air. The palate is juicy white peaches sprinkled with sea salt, with a touch of licorice like spice. Excellent acidity and body, with a refreshing and clean finish. #cassis #realprovence — 9 years ago
Cassis rose that starts elegant and fresh, then builds on the mid palate gaining body and intensity, and then fully unfurls on the finish into a fresh, crisp, chalky mineral laden finish showing deeply complex notes of orange and lemon citrus with rose petal and tart raspberry.
Grenache (55%), Mourvedre (31%) and Cinsault (14%)
