Extremely perfumed with dried peaches, passion fruit and some mineral elements. Ever so subtle. Full-bodied, yet so tight and focused, with a really long and vertical texture of fine tannins and beautiful fruit, as well as bright acidity.
The barrel-fermented 2020 Cotes de Provence Rose Garrus is another beautiful effort. A wine that has helped redefine Provence rosé, it's toasty and vanilla-laden, yet also balanced and successful, with notes of tangerine, peach, raspberry and lime in abundance. Medium to full-bodied, ripe and generous in feel, it finishes long, with echoes of allspice and citrus.
Warm, spicy oak aromas with some toast, vanilla and ginger. Lush flavours of ginger, honeysuckle and almond flood the palate and a silky, creamy texture follows. Very complex and inviting. Blend: 55% Grenache, 45% Vermentino.
