This is a cracker from a plot of seriously old Carignan vines planted in way back in 1903! The vines can be located in a cooler spot, which helps temper the warm Mediterranean climate. So, what does that mean for the finished wines? Well in the hands of a talented grower and winemaker like Pierre Escudie they exhibit wonderful freshness that sits alongside the naturally dark flavour characters that are so charming in old vine Carignan and allowing this bottling an extra dimension of luscious drinkability.
