Domaine du Clos des Fees Vieilles Vignes 2015

50% Grenache and Lladoner Pelut, 35% Carignan and 15% Syrah being a blend of 50-100 yo vines of the estate. Vinified with a slow and gentle extraction, aged without racking in cement and barrel (none new). Very perfumed and silky on the palate with real intensity and finesse. Very attractive young this will also age well for about 10 years but will be very hard to resist..!!

”Volume and intensity rule in the 2015 Côtes du Roussillon Villages Vieilles Vignes, a blend of 50% Grenache, 35% Carignan and 15% Syrah from vines 50-100 years old. It's as if proprietor Hervé Bizeul decided to turn the volume up to 11, cramming immense amounts of black cherry fruit into this full-bodied fleshpot that's aged in a combination of used barriques and cement tanks. The tannins are supple, the acids balanced, but readers looking for a more sedate experience might want to give this impetuous youth a year or two in the cellar to mellow.”
