2012 Chêne Bleu Abélard

Description

Winemaker Notes:

A very deep ruby. On the nose, aromas of ripe blackberry, garrigue, licorice and spice. The palate is intense and concentrated, blackberry, morello cherry and spice; silky tannins bring structure and depth to the wine; elegant and powerful, distinctly masculine. A blend of  Grenache and Syrah that spent 18 months in barrel. Big, ripe, layered and hedonistic, with tons of sweet Grenache blackberry and black cherry fruits, melted licorice and roasted herb aromas and flavors,
