Importer notes: "Produced from two-thirds Carignan and one-third Grenache, from vines between 40 and 120 years of age, the 2013 struggled to achieve a yield of 15 hectoliters per hectare. The nose offers a laser-beam of black cherry intensity, with pungent mineral depth and ultra-high-toned but savory herbal accents. It feels young but tastes great, and, as we experienced in a little vertical with Thomas stretching back to 2008, it will blossom into something staggeringly pure and inviting. If this wine strikes you as expensive, keep in mind the price of Burgundy’s grand crus--which can be tilled by machine, and which routinely yield more than twice what this wine does."
