Winery Review: The relation between the Grenache and the terroir of Roc des Anges gives fruity and fleshy grapes. To balance this generosity, they are blended with old Carignan and Syrah giving firm structure and dark colour and resulting in a tender and fruity wine sustained by a real texture of tannins. Four S's: soft, smooth, silky and smoky. Lively and fresh in the mouth, gentle flavours of red grape and berry, dried spices and roasted herbs. From the rock of the angles springs the blood (Segna) of the heart (Cor).
My Review: It was a very dark purple color and had a flowery nose, almost like a spring garden. It was a fairly dry wine but was a very nice blend that had a soft finish. It was spicy and slightly acidic with some clove and blackberry on the mid palate.
I did not taste this wine with food.
