    This vineyard close to the Mediterranean has produced a ripe wine with a cool, crisp texture and a touch of saltiness. Taken together, these elements give plenty of crispness, black currant fruitiness and a layer of tannin at the end. Drink from 2018.

    This is an attractively ripe blend of Niellucciu, Syrah and Grenache. Softly textured with a warm backdrop of blackberry fruit, the wine is spicy and has a distinctly southern-France feel. Its softness means it is ready to drink now.
