Grenache Under My Skin

Grape varieties
80% Grenache / 20% Syrah
Origin
France / Roussillon / Entre Maury & Saint-Paul De Fenouillet
Nuance, aroma & taste
Almost like purple ink.
Fine, seducer, almost like a cream of dark fruits, with a slight milky and spicy touch.
Fine, slender (thanks to the magic of the schist ground), will round off and gain in amplitude and density, a beautiful balance.
The final taste is chewy and intense, very marked by dark fruits and even more so by spices.
Pairing
Mixed grills, piquillos, leg of lamb, cheese of course…
Recommendations
Serve at 15°C
