Our oenologists' opinion
Fruity and well-rounded
Deep salmon colour with hints of old pink. Open nose with notes of redcurrant, lingonberry and morello cherry, with a hint of blood orange. Full, fleshy attack, with notes of red berries and citrus fruit, good body and good balance. The finish is fleshy and well-balanced, with redcurrant and pink grapefruit, a hint of minerality and good persistence.

Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Tannins ? Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.

Located in La Londe Les Maures, on the Mediterranean coast between Toulon and Saint-Tropez, the estate extends over 50 hectares of schist, benefiting from the AOP Côtes de Provence ‘La Londe’ terroir designation and organic wine certification by Ecocert.
