An excellent Rhone blend:grenache, counoise, syrah, cinsault, merlot.  

During vinification, each varietal of every vineyard is fermented separately in oak casks, with assemblage taking place in enamel-lined tanks before bottling. The maceration ranges from 12 to 15 days, and fermentation is allowed to begin naturally with no inoculation of yeasts. The wine is then aged for 12 months, with the Merlot aged in barriques (30% new).
