Features
Assemblage : cabernet-sauvignon 50%, syrah 50%
Dégustation : La robe est pourpre très sombre, quasi opaque. Le nez est fin, classieux, sur la crème de fruits noirs, la violette, le poivre, l'encens, le graphite... La bouche est élancée, tendue par un fil invisible, tout en déployant une matière ample, finement veloutée, à la chair dense, profonde, plus robuste qu'elle n'y paraît au premier abord. L'aromatique poursuit sur le fruit noir mûr, rafraîchi par une touche mentholée. La tension se prolonge en finale, soulignée par des tanins puissants mais déjà bien fondus. C'est seulement à ce moment-là que l'élevage pointe son nez, ajoutant à la crème de mûre des notes épicées et grillées. Et une persistance sur le menthol et le poivre.
Garde : peut être bu sans attendre ou se conserver de nombreuses années.
Service : boire à 17°C, ouvrir au moins 1 heure avant de le servir, le carafer ne peut que lui faire du bien. Il accompagnera viandes et gibiers, mais aussi des fromages affinés.

L'avis du Guide Hachette des Vins
Malgré son nom, cette cuvée, issue de cabernet-sauvignon et de syrah à parts égales, sait où elle va ! Elle semble être descendue de son terroir d'altitude vers la garrigue, dont elle offre tous les parfums, agrémentés d'autres senteurs méridionales de tapenade, d'olive noire et d'épices et, en bouche, d'un brin de violette et d'une touche d'épices douces. La vinification d'une partie des raisins en grains entiers apporte une grande puissance aromatique et l'élevage de seize mois en demi-muids n'écrase pas le vin. Frais en attaque, dense, le palais prend du volume et de l'ampleur jusqu'à la finale chaleureuse et onctueuse, qui laisse un sillage réglissé.
What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
