90pts WS: A solidly built version, with crushed cherry and plum puree notes that meld with melted red licorice before singed juniper takes over on the finish. This has guts and range.
The Domaine de Beaurenard Rasteau offers intense aromas of black fruit and blueberries, lifted by a touch of spice. The density and depth of the palate associate fruit and minerality with remarkable persistence.

Layers of truffle & sun-dried garrigue lend complexity to this spicy, richly concentrated Grenache-Mourvédre blend. Edged with a fine fringe of cocoa powder tannins & fresh black-currant acidity.
Raspberry-ripple aromas on the nose, very candied and sweet. Furry tannins, fine acidic lift and spicy, savoury contrast on the finish. Fairly light for the appellation.
