Deep ruby with a hint of purple at the core, indicating concentration and youth. The wine shows excellent clarity and depth of color, with a vibrant appearance in the glass.

The nose is expressive and layered, with ripe aromas of black cherry, plum, and raspberry, interwoven with notes of garrigue (Mediterranean herbs such as thyme, rosemary, and lavender). Hints of black pepper, leather, and subtle smoky notes from oak aging add complexity. There is also a touch of licorice and a faint earthy undertone, giving it a classic Rhône character.

On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and richly textured, with flavors of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and red plum, supported by secondary notes of dried herbs, leather, and a touch of spice. The tannins are fine and well-structured, providing grip without overwhelming the palate. A balanced acidity lifts the fruit, keeping the wine lively and preventing it from feeling too heavy. Subtle oak influence adds hints of vanilla and spice, while preserving the purity of the fruit.
