Wine Review: 50% Grenache, 30% Carignan and 20% Syrah. The relation between the Grenache and the terroir of Roc des Anges gives fruity and fleshy grapes. To balance this generosity, they are blended with old Cariganan (60-80 years old) and Syrah giving firm structure and dark colour and resulting in a tender and fruity wine sustained by a real texture of tannins. Four S's: soft, smooth, silky and smoky! Lively and fresh in the mouth, gentle flavours of red grape and berry, dried spices and roasted herbs. From the rock of the angels springs the blood (Segna) of the heart (Cor).
My Review: The four S's describe this wine perfectly. It was awesome to experience each and everyone one, one right after the other. This wine in particular gets me excited to try more Grenache based wines going forward. Lot of subtle flavors like the red berrry, spices, herbs, and hints of tabacco. Delicious wine.
