2020 Côtes-du-Rhône “L' Emouvante”
Domaine GramenonDomaine Gramenon's prowess with Grenache has been proven over many vintages, with top wines such as their cuvée La Sagesse demonstrating the purity and sensual texture the variety can deliver from old vines in top terroirs.
L'Emouvante is a new addition to their lineup, a pure Syrah made from the same parcels that produce La Sagesse. The combination of limestone, sand, and clay soils, along with 100% whole-cluster vinification and aging in neutral barrels, gives a Syrah of rare breed, especially this far south. Deep, concentrated, and refreshingly saline, this is like great Cornas with Mediterranean influences.
