This poised red blend alternates between black cherry and blackberry on the nose with smoky undertones of sage brush, rosehip and red currant peppered throughout. Concentrated red fruit takes center stage on the palate of this gorgeous wine that is dripping with finesse and is supported by savory notes of dried rosemary and garigue.

A blend of unknowns proportions of Grenache Noir, Mourvèdre and Syrah, all vinified separately, the 2021 La Clape Chateau L’Hospitalet Grand Vin reveals a dark, complex bouquet of ripe dark berries, spices, licorice and chocolate mingled with delicate notes of oak. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and deep, it’s framed by elegant, velvety tannins and segues into a long, slightly oaky finish with mulberries on the aftertaste. Well-crafted and matured for 16 months in barrels, this is a classic at this address.
