Variety
60% Syrah20% Grenache20% Mourvèdre
A deceptively simple blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre that has a satisfying richness and long finish. It’s a classic everyday red that pairs with a wide range of foods and occasions. Like all the wines from Château de Montfrin, the grapes come exclusively from their own 120 hectares of organic vines around the town of Montfrin, vinified on-site using native yeasts.
