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.
