A natural Grenache rouge from Chateau Saint Cyrgues near Nîmes in the southern Rhône, made with 10 days of skin maceration, indigenous yeast, and zero filtration or fining — a gentle, floral, and accessible red that drinks beautifully young.
Tasting Notes
Floral on the nose with peach, summer fruit, and a touch of grip from the skin contact. On the palate it is light to medium bodied, soft, and approachable, with gentle tannins and a clean, mineral finish. A great entry-level natural red from the southern Rhône that doesn't ask much of you.
