Domaine De Pigeade Ventoux Les Sables Rouge 2022 40% Grenache, 30-40% Carignan, 20-30% Syrah (oldest vines 1960s) hand harvested then destemmed, from clay-limestone soils, pre-fermentation cool maceration, 3 week thermo-regulated vinification, cap punchings, pumping overs, vat raised 6 months, called Classique until early 2010s, filtered, “serve lightly chilled with summer barbecues”, 10,000 bottles. John Livingstone-Learmonth - Drinkrhone.com An absolute melange of briory blackberry leaf, red jelly crystals, tar, morello cherry and pepper. Incredibly aromatic, this is bright and crunchy through the palate, with beautifully pristine clarity, svelte through the mid, a plentiful amount of fruit never moving out of midweight, and this lovely mouthwatering acidity on the finish. It's a beautiful drink, incredibly moreish and all round exceptional value.
