Dom. de Grangeneuve 2013 La Truffière (Grignan-les Adhemar)
This remarkable vineyard, which gains its name from the truffle-bearing oaks that surround it, never fails to
deliver its signature rendition of cocoa-scented Syrah. Aged in barriques of 2-6 years’ use, it is unexaggeratedly
ripe and stately, confident in its bearing and refined in its finish. It will please its many followers.

Notes from the Producer: Prevailing aromas of very ripe red fruits with hints of the garrigue. On the mouth, this powerful wine shows great complexity with noticeable silky tannins. Hints of undergrowth, game and black kirsch fruits.
