FR Rhone Selection ( Vignobles Mayard)

Fresh youthful aromas of cherries and cooked plums combine with dried fruits and rosemary for a more complex bouquet. On the palate, it is smooth with a powdery texture and lively vibrant acidity leading to persistent red fruits, bitter cherry and chocolate flavours on the finish. 80% of the blend is Grenache, combined with 10% Syrah and 5% each of Mourvèdre and Cinsault. It was matured in concrete tanks and large old oak foudres for 15 months. Grapes were grown in the south of the Appellation on clay, silty soils and gravel.
