WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
There is a great synergy between the principal cépage in the '22 Vin Gris. Grenache in this relatively cool vintage provides the usual olfactory suspects: wild strawberry, peach, guava and rhubarb and a very discreet scent of white pepper with Cinsault furnishing the elegant candied cherry top note that chromatically sits atop its vitaceous conjugate. Mourvèdre, at its near homeopathic level, contributes a useful background earthy note.
Blend: 50% Cinsault, 43% Grenache, 5% Clairette Blanche, 2% Mourvèdre
TASTING NOTES:
Very pale in color, this bottling offers soft aromas of bubblegum and pink rose petals on the delicate nose. There's a strong mineral streak to the palate, where flavors of crushed stone and rainy cement play against the soft peach and melon fruits. BEST BUY
