Nose has smokey dry earth, dry lavender, old licorice, dried black cherry, ripe black currant, dried blackberry and (light) dried oak.

Palate has silky dried blackberry, ripe plum, black currant jam, (light) dark chocolate, dried blueberry and light tannins. Mouth coating texture. Future bottles should be 2023+

50% Grenache & 50% Mourvédre

Paired with a bottom round beef roast, slow cooked 8+ hours with autumn root vegetables and the au jus from the roast, thickened with a little of my own tomato paste, delicious. — 6 years ago

Bought the last three bottles from Mathieu to drink while in the area. Just a lovely CdP blanc. Had this same vintage at L’Arbe à Vins in each of the last three trips to Vaucluse. — 7 years ago

2014. One of the best Syrah-dominant Languedoc blends I've had. Perfect acidity matched to balanced alcohol, tannin and fruit. Kudos to Isabelle and Mathieu Champart. Stellar! — 9 years ago

100% petit verdot. This followed the 2010 Bastide Saint-Dominique CdP, which provided the intended contrast in styles, but probably created unrealistic expectations. Immediately I was surprised at how old this wine smelled and tasted. (We decanted for an hour.) Interestingly it was evocative of a much, much older right bank Bordeaux than a 10 year old petit verdot. The harness of the grape is gone, and this is much more approachable that I would have guessed. This would no doubt confuse everyone in a blind tasting. — 9 years ago

I loved this. Earthy, barnyard, chewy. That great Provençal garrigue. Calls for a hearty dinner. — 10 years ago
