THE STRUCTURE

Grenache dominant and extremely approachable, Le Vingt was made to be opened tonight. Bright and refreshing, this light red has captivating red fruits on the nose. Carignan brings a touch of savory qualities to the fruit-forward wine. Syrah brings freshness and notes of freshly cracked black and white pepper while Mourvèdre's earthy profile lingers.

Tasting Notes

Le Vingt is vibrant, expressive, and effortlessly approachable. At its core, Grenache delivers a burst of ripe raspberry, lifted by delicate floral notes of violet and rose petal. The palate is juicy and layered. Raspberry notes mingle with cedar, fennel, and a touch of anise. Carignan brings savory depth and a thread of dried herbs, while Syrah adds brightness and a hint of spice. Mourvèdre grounds the wine with subtle earthiness, lending texture and complexity to a smooth, nuanced finish.
