Well balanced on the palate, with a nice silky texture, good concentration and a beautiful complexity of flavours. Round, thanks to the extremely thin tannins, while a delicate liquorice note enhances the whole.Tasting reveals a very nice length and long-lasting aromas. A wine that elegantly embodies the authentic character of the Sablet Côtes du Rhône Villages appellation.
