septentrioNale

Is Syrah for red. With a touch of old vine Cabernet Sauvignon.
As white it is Viognier dominant, with Roussanne or Marsanne blended.
The 2016 Septentrionale rouge is opaque purple ruby. It smells
of sweet forest floor. Soft but weighty blueberry, dried herb and spice characters fill the mouth, framed with gentle new oak.
It opens to a warm drying finish typical of the year's ripeness.

meridionale

Is Grenache dominant for red.
Blending Mourvèdre, Cinsaut, Syrah, and maybe Counoise.
For the white, Roussanne dominates. Viognier and Picpoul
are blended.
The 2017 Meridionale red is delicate ruby. Mouthwatering.
A bouquet of sour cherries and a gentle kiss of savoury oak.
A cooler lighter year. Elegant. The finish still warming.
With Grenache's natural viscosity filling the palate.
Cellaring should integrate these characters with time.

provencale
Is mostly Mourvèdre for red and rosé.
But reflects a season with proportions of Carignan, Cinsaut, Morrastel, Grenache, and sometimes Counoise or Syrah. In 2016 the Provencale red is earthy and dense. With the subdued fresh fruitcake mulberry of Mourvedre at its core, embedded with hints of tar, dark chocolate and oak, integrated by the fruit weight from a warmer season. The 2019 Provencale Rose' has a fresh mineral, almost red currant nose. Pale, soft nectarine skin blush hue. In the mouth it is robust. Complex for a rose'. Hints of nectarine, flesh of summer berries, and drying on the finish. Chill well. |
deuxieme

Is second.
Declassified parcels from the premier wines.
Exact composition varies with the season.
The 2017 Deuxieme is soft garnet. Mourvedre slightly dominant in the blend with Grenache. Some seasoned oak, defined earth and cherry characters infuse the wine's aromatics. Following through is a simple, warm savoury, but mouthfilling finish.
