Youthful, Biodynamic & sustainable agriculture red from the Village of Vinsobres in the Southern Rhone. Grapes are Syrah (Shiraz) Grenache, Cinsault & Mourvedre.
Phillipe, Valerie & Thibaud (their son) Chaume Arnaud make great wine. Drink now with red meats, roasted veg, spicy bean casserole, pies, you name it, as long as it is tasty! Alternatively, you could cellar for 10 years, yes, it is that good.

2020 ****
quite a dark red colour; the nose has a crushed raspberry, a near liqueur style air, sweetness inside, is inviting, shows the South, a hint of black olives. The palate has a soaked red fruits’ flavour, squeezy tannin attached, is aromatic, almost plush, gourmand on skates, shows Syrah influences, fine tannins inside, extends gently, bears rolling appeal, is genuine Southern wine, good to drink now, will run on. 14°. 60% Gren, 20% Syr, 10% Cins, 10% Mourv. 2032-33 Feb 2024
