An exuberantly floral-suffused nose speaks of both red and dark berries

racy and inviting

Like several of the wines in the range this possesses enough dry extract such that it will be approachable young but should also repay mid-term cellaring

Red cherry and tar notes

More discreet but certainly not invisible wood and menthol influences are present on the cool essence of various red berries that is trimmed in warm earth nuances

Pallieres, Gigondas Racines other_regions_italy An exuberantly floral-suffused nose speaksFull bottle 1,390 g. From the estate's oldest vines (60 to 100 years old). 80% Grenache, 8% Syrah, 7% Cinsault, 5% Clairette. Kermit Lynch and Brunier family run this. Slightly dull, shaded garnet almost ruby suggests this was neither filtered nor fined. Really grunty, sweet southern Rhne with herbs and spices and even a bit of leather. Lots of fun! Hints of molasses and dried grasses. Really artisanal and a liquid to transport you to red wine
