Dom. de Grangeneuve 2014 'Esprit de Grenache' (Cotes du Rhone Villages)
This uncommonly pretty rendition of the Rhône’s signature grape hails from a leased parcel of old vines in
Vinsobres, a few miles to the south of Domaine de Grangeneuve, the Bour’s home estate. The nose reeks of
strawberries and the silky texture presents no obstacle to imbibement.

Notes from the Producer: Really ample in the mouth, with a persistency of spicy notes, liquorice and jam of red berries. A Côte du Rhône red wine, vinified with freshness and balance.
