How it is produced
The cuvée is created from a blend of Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah.

The wood underlines the roundness on the palate without masking aromatic clarity, maintaining a harmonious overall balance.

On the palate it shows medium tannins, a soft touch and a lively freshness that complements the sip. The finish is clean and persistent, with lingering red fruit flavours.
Food pairings
The recommended pairing is with a cheese board, where the softness of the wine and its medium tannins find a natural balance. The red fruit notes and hint of black pepper accompany structured cheeses, while the wine’s freshness helps maintain palate balance between tastings.
When to serve it
It is recommended when you desire a red with medium structure, prominent red fruit, measured spiciness and an overall smooth feel. It shines at the table thanks to its freshness that supports the progression of each sip and a persistence that is consistent between nose and palate, especially when served with cheese.
