The palate is citrus fresh with orange rind and light stem ginger notes, real depth and tension in this Chardonnay, fanning out with assurance on the persistent finish. Excellent.

"Our leanest Chardonnay for a while". Creamy yet mineral, with attractive 20% new wood, it has layers of toast, passion fruit and beeswax and a core of sappy, palate-cleansing acidity.

With heady aromas of roast nut & citrus rind, subtle flavour richness, 2021 combines refinement of 2020 (93 pts) & showiness of 2019. Lemon curd with touches of oak spice.
A medium to full-bodied blend of Syrah and Grenache meant for early consumption. Black cherries, hints of black olives, espresso and dark chocolate can all be found here, wrapped in supple tannins.

Offering a ripe yet still fresh bouquet of black raspberries, violets, peppery herbs, and spring flowers, it's elegant and medium-bodied, has a silky texture, and is just a great drink.

A 70-30 blend of Syrah and Grenache, the 2017 Languedoc Les Complices offers up hints of cracked pepper and cherry-raspberry fruit on the nose. It's medium to full-bodied, with supple tannins, moderate concentration and a spicy, easygoing finish.
