Tasting notes
Mainly Grenache with Syrah and young Carignan. Deep crimson. Sweet and friendly. Very definitely a taste of the south… Fun and with a definite northern French sensibility. (JR)

A crunchy, vibrant and fresh style, the 2014 Minervois 50 / 50 has morphed from an even split of Syrah and Grenache to include a splash of Carignan. It reveals a vibrant purple color as well as fresh notes of spring flowers, plums, violets and black cherries. Medium-bodied, elegant and with light tannin, it shines for its terrific purity of fruit and clean finish. Drink it anytime over the coming 5-6 years.
About the producer

Anne Gros is better known for her estate in Vosne-Romanée, as is her partner Jean-Paul Tollot for his family’s Domaine Tollot-Beaut in Chorey-lès-Beaune. Beyond Burgundy, however, the duo makes some impressive wine in Cazelles in the Minervois, working with higher-altitude vineyards.
