Dense aromas of wild cherry, dried herbs and forest floor draw you in immediately. The palate reveals Reynaud's signature rusticity. Earthy, mineral-driven fruit with grip and serious backbone. Less opulent than typical Châteauneuf but built for the long haul. Needs patience to fully express its mysteries.
